[Comprehensive] Demon Fox Hiding Horse

Hades is obviously accustomed to the occasional small outbursts of academic research by his subordinates.

There was a slight smile in his eyes, and his head was intertwined with Zangma's gaze. Although he didn't respond, at a certain moment, Yaohu keenly read "slowly you will get used to it" from Pluto's eyes. Such information...

"..."

Kurama blinked his eyes, for a moment, he didn't know whether he should be happy that someone in the team finally shouldered the responsibility of studying and thinking, so that he could lighten his burden a little, or should he be surprised that Hypnos had immersed himself in it. Deep, to be undisguised and revealing a fanatical side that is completely unknown like now.

And the schoolmaster Hypnos, who brought such entangled and complicated thoughts to his Majesty the Queen of the Underworld (hey), at this time, his expression and movements are very schoolboy, and he stretched out his hand to push the black-bellied and sinister man with glasses on the bridge of his nose at some time Special (?) metal frame glasses: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Empress of the Underworld, the time is coming soon."

——So can you please focus on the business for a while, and stop paying attention to his little personal hobby?

Sleeping God had a gloomy smile on his face.

It seems that he is not entirely accepting that his research madman's habit will flare up from time to time according to the things he comes into contact with.

Under the seemingly calm and tough gaze of Hypnos, Kurama slowly raised the corners of his mouth...

"let's start."

He spoke softly, and it seemed that he had entered the serious business mode instantly, just as Hypnos expected.

however……

The corners of the thin and slightly pursed mouth twitched violently twice uncontrollably. The blond god swears that he clearly sees a scalp-numbing look from the meaningful gaze that the demon fox looks at him. The banter and interest...

Σ<(=っ°Д°)っ!Please let me go!

Sleeping God silently turned his face away, and a very bad premonition suddenly rose in his heart...

***

In the Chunin exam venue, Orochimaru ordered people to set up the Four Purple Flame Formation to trap the third Hokage.

The life-and-death duel between a pair of teachers and students has reached the last and most critical moment.

The third Hokage, who performed the secret technique of Ghoul Seal, successfully sealed the first and second Hokages who were reincarnated by Orochimaru's dirty soil.

Naturally, Orochimaru would not let him get what he wanted, so the two of them were at a stalemate with each other, one tried to drag the soul of the other to pull it out desperately, and the other gritted his teeth and tried to slow down or even prevent the soul from being pulled away. In the process of confrontation between the two sides, time is slow and filled with a strange sense of stagnation as if there is substance, and continues to flow forward without stopping...

Finally, the third Hokage exhausted the last bit of strength and successfully sealed the hands of Orochimaru. With a relieved smile on his face, he murmured the famous sentence that explained the meanings of the two names "Konoha" and "Hokage". The sentence—"Where there are leaves flying, the fire will burn; the shadow of the fire will shine on the village, and... cause new leaves to sprout..."—Slowly closed his eyes.

The expression on Orochimaru's face ranged from shock to anger to unconcealable sadness and mania. He looked at the third Hokage who was slowly falling into a pool of blood with a smile on his face, and suddenly seemed to have lost his ability to speak...

"...Are you kidding me?"

After a long silence, he suddenly spoke in a low voice, his tone full of suppressed anger.

"Are you kidding me, you old man!" His voice suddenly turned up, surprising everyone around him! '"What's so funny about this! Trading my own life for my hands...what's so funny about this?!"

He stared at the third Hokage who closed his eyes and fell not far in front of him, as if the old man would open his eyes and stand up again in the next second, with that annoying kind smile that seemed to contain everything, he spoke to He preaches something.

However, no more.

Everything he imagined, or expected, did not happen.

The Third Hokage still looked like he would never wake up again, lying there quietly with a smile on his face, even the smile on his face that made Orochimaru so angry seemed to flow out of the wound on his body, and gradually becoming cold and solidified...

The dark-haired man lowered his gaze.

The tone ninjas who were protecting the four corners of the Sizi Yan Formation couldn't help but began to urge them.

The battle outside the formation seems to have ended, and Konoha's ninjas are gathering here in large numbers.

If you don't evacuate now, I'm afraid it will be later...

"Master Orochimaru!"

The four of them called anxiously at the same time.

The black-haired youth slowly raised his head.

His expression was still as calm and cold as before, as if all the out-of-control before had never existed.

Looking around at the four subordinates with anxious faces, his eyes were cold, and he was about to give an order...

"Hehe... I didn't expect you to feel sad about the death of this old Sarutobi, Orochimaru."

——Accompanied by a malicious low laugh, just behind Orochimaru, in the enchantment space that should have been completely enclosed by the four purple flame formations, a figure wearing a black robe with a red cloud pattern on a black background suddenly appeared.

The face of the visitor was wearing a strangely shaped orange swirl-shaped mask, and the whole person stood there with the backlight, the only right eye exposed outside the mask, because of the backlight, it seemed to emit an ominous blood-colored light in the shadows... …

And looking more carefully, Orochimaru found that the other party was holding two limp little figures lying on the ground one by one in his hands, one of them was a red-haired panda who was in a mess and seemed to be in a state of exhaustion boy, and the other is...

"Naruto?!"

—— Kakashi, who was outside the Four Purple Flame Formation, couldn't help but exclaimed the moment he saw the figure of his disciple clearly.

How is this going? !

The silver-haired Jonin's expression suddenly became dignified. He was a little depressed because of the sacrifice of the third Hokage, but he also tried his best to cheer up his disciple who fell into the enemy's hands.

Compared with Gaara, the golden-haired little fox, whose posture was not much better, heard his teacher's voice and turned his head to Kakashi's position with difficulty: "Kakashi-sensei..."

——This tone is so weak that it doesn't look like the energetic and funny little fox in Kakashi's memory!

"What the hell happened?"

Seeing this, the silver-haired young man couldn't help but frowned, stepped forward, and shot sharply at the mysterious man in the Xiaopao who hadn't turned around from the beginning to the end, and gave him and the Konoha ninjas beside him a straight look: "Scratch Who is this person living with you, why is Sasuke not with you?"

"Sasuke..."

Naruto was not able to answer, and the one who responded to Kakashi was the mysterious man in Xiaopao wearing a strange whirlpool mask.

He tilted his head slightly, and his right eye hidden behind the mask seemed to casually look in Kakashi's direction following this movement.

"Heh, I forgot if you didn't remind me. He is an important 'gift' for me to express my sincerity and gratitude to my 'collaborator'. How could it just be left there like this?"

Saying that, the figure of the mysterious masked man instantly disappeared from the barrier, and a few seconds later, it reappeared like magic.

The difference was that this time he was holding another boy in his hand - it was Sasuke that Kakashi had asked before!

Xiao Tuanfan’s current situation doesn’t look much better than Naruto and Gaara’s. Not to mention the scars all over his body, he is also firmly bound by a few chains that are as thick as an adult’s arm and made of unknown material, shining with icy cold metal light. , the whole person was caught in the mask man's hands and couldn't move...

"Here, this is yours."

The masked man moved more casually with a casual tone and threw Sasuke at the feet of Orochimaru, who had a very gloomy and indifferent expression since his appearance.

The black-haired young man looked at him coldly, with a cold light flowing in his pair of golden vertical pupils, he didn't look like the "collaborator" that the masked man said at all.

"The previous agreement... said, that's not the case."

He said in a cold tone.

The masked man held his belly and laughed exaggeratedly as if he had heard some very funny joke: "Hahaha... are you serious? Orochimaru?"

he said with a smile.

"The previous agreement... how did it come about? Let me think, 'You are responsible for holding back the third Hokage and Konoha Anbe, and at the same time attracting the attention of other jonin, and I am responsible for capturing the tailed beast and bringing Sasuke back for you' ——I remember the content of the agreement is like this, right?"

"Now..." Spreading his hands, he signaled Dashewan to take a closer look at the situation before him. The masked man smiled but at the same time he looked very serious: "Look, the content of the agreement... Is it true that I haven't fulfilled it all?"

Orochimaru looked at him coldly unmoved:

"You're still a little behind."

"Oh?" The masked man tilted his head pretending to be cute, "You mean 'and assisting you in carrying out the Konoha destruction plan'?"

Orochimaru remained silent with a cold face.

The masked man stared at him in silence for a moment, then laughed wildly in a more exaggerated posture than before and almost bent over: "Tsk tsk~ I didn't realize that you are such a naive person, Orochimaru."

He shook his head. Although he couldn't see the expression on his face clearly because he was wearing a mask, anyone could guess that the face hidden behind the mask must be full of irony. Another malicious smile full of mockery.

"Konoha... Although this village doesn't mean anything to me, it is still useful for what I'm going to do next."

"So, how could I not only watch you destroy it, but even step forward to help?"

The masked man laughed, and reached out to lift Naruto and Gaara, who were immobile on the ground: "In short, I have not violated the 'agreement' with you. In this transaction, we can only say that we each get what we need, although neither It’s so satisfying—well, don’t look at me like that, I’m really satisfied!—but at least each of them has basically achieved their goals, hasn’t it?”

He said, again pretending to be cute and tilting his head slightly:

"So don't think too much that you've been fooled, whoever made you so useless even an old man like Sarutobi Hiruzen can't beat~"

After finishing speaking, the man who seemed to be smiling happily behind the mask tightened the two teenagers in his hands, seeing that his figure had begun to weaken...

However, just as he was about to disappear in the same place as the two previous mysterious comings and goings, the masked man suddenly seemed to be imprisoned by some invisible force for an instant, and suddenly appeared at the moment when he was about to disappear He stepped out of the figure, and retreated a few times in extremely embarrassing strides, almost falling to the ground.

And at the same time...

"Heh. He's right, Orochimaru! It's true that you haven't been very skilled over the years, and you can't even beat an old man like me."

——Accompanied by a familiar and gentle laugh, the figure of the third Hokage who was lying stiff in a pool of blood suddenly disappeared, replaced by a white-haired old man in a Hokage robe who appeared intact next to Orochimaru .

And Orochimaru, who was completely messed up and his hands were sealed off, also changed back to the clean and tidy appearance before the start of the battle at the same time, with a pair of arms, also flexible and unsealed Thai style... …

"Stop getting carried away, old man."

He hummed in a low voice, flicked his fingers lightly, taking advantage of the momentary stiffness and slowness of the masked man, he flew out a Kunai and shot at the orange whirlpool mask on his face with incomparable precision...

"I just want to do it with my own hands, so I can cooperate with you to finish this boring and stupid show."

He said this with a sense of complaint, and at the moment when the slight mask shattered on the opposite side, he raised his eyes and looked at the past...

"What do you think about this matter? A Fei? Uchiha Madara? Or..."

"Should I call you, Uchiha... Obito?"

Facing the pair of blood-colored sharing eyes that were spinning rapidly, Orochimaru quietly smiled.

And in the phantom plant enchantment that everyone can't see through, a faint smile also appeared on the face of the top student Hypnos...

"checkmate."

With his thin lips slightly parted, he turned around and bowed gracefully to Zangma and Hades: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Empress of the Underworld, the game... is over."
