Konoha: Doing good deeds can make you stronger

Chapter 74 Orochimaru?
"Looks like you've figured it out."

The boy's performance did not exceed Kakashi's expectations.

The test prepared by Kakashi is not only a test of Marutani Kou's skill, but more importantly, a test of his combat IQ.

As Marutani Kou expected, from the earliest test, it was not Kakashi himself who launched the attack, but a member of Anbu who had hidden nearby in advance, and this member of Anbu was also one of the members of this mission, since now His own arrangement has been discovered by Marutani Hang, and the people in the shadows naturally have no need to continue to hide.

Coincidentally, this Anbu member also happens to be an acquaintance of Marutani Hang.

Everyone must have guessed it.

A familiar figure came out, dressed in black, appeared in front of Marutani Kou, and greeted him familiarly.

"Hello, Marutani Kou, what a coincidence."

"It's impolite to call you brother."

Itachi Uchiha looked at the unceremonious young man in front of him with a dark face and sighed deeply. If one day his image in the village is damaged, the culprit must be the other party.

"Senior Kakashi, since I have discovered Itachi, does this test count as my passing successfully?"

Marutani Kou turned his head and began to ask Kakashi on the side.

"Well, your passable strength, calm mind, and your strange self-created ninjutsu have indeed reached the standard. As long as your medical ninjutsu is also fine, you can join us."

"Congratulations in advance."

Uchiha Itachi showed a faint smile. He is also a member of this mission. If Marutani Ko, his friend, can also join, he will also feel very happy.

Kakashi took Marutani Konoha Hospital with him, which has the best medical ninja in the whole village.

Kakashi asked the doctors to take the time to assess the level of juvenile medical ninjutsu. After being highly recognized by the hospital doctors and retained by the high salary, he quickly dragged the reluctant Marutani Kou out of the hospital together with Uchiha Itachi .

Marutani Koko was still immersed in the beautiful life the doctor had built for him just now, and asked Kakashi with drooling eyes.

"The doctor said just now, if I stay, how much will I be paid?"

Kakashi refused with a dark face.

"did not hear it."

Now that he has passed the test, Marutani Hang also has the right to know about the mission.

"Next, we will tell you the basic information of the mission."

"It's just a mouthful, so what kind of troublesome mission did you guys receive?"

"Looking for Orochimaru."

Kakashi opened his mouth flatly, but Marutani Kou jumped, and jumped up from the ground with a cry of surprise.

"Orochimaru?!"

Marutani Koko heard a lot of rumors from various villagers when he was helping others, and among them, Konoha Sannin, who was once famous in Konoha, was naturally included, and the one that left the deepest impression on him was undoubtedly The "Mad Scientist" Orochimaru.

Orochimaru, one of the Konoha Sannin, has been secretly conducting prohibited human experiments in the village. He himself defected from the village after the experiments were exposed, and his whereabouts are still unknown.

It is worth mentioning that Konoha Sannin is now the apprentice of Konoha Hokage and Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Then I'm going to die?"

As one of Konoha Sannin, Orochimaru's strength is naturally needless to say, and the opponent is also good at various strange forbidden techniques. According to those villagers, these forbidden techniques are not only powerful, but also many are directly linked to the soul. Once caught by him, it will either become the object of the other party's experiment, or it will be trampled to death like an ant without leaving a trace.

Marutani Koko couldn't help feeling a little bit of retreat.

"Or I'll just forget it, and my strength will only be a hindrance."

Itachi Uchiha could only explain.

"You don't have to worry, this time our mission is only to find the traces of Orochimaru, and we will not fight the opponent head-on. Even if an accident does happen, you will be there as a logistics staff to respond from a distance, and the task of fighting will be handed over to me and That's Kakashi-senpai."

"The same goes for you," Kakashi suddenly interrupted Itachi Uchiha, "If Orochimaru really appears, you take him and run back to the village."

"Kakashi-senpai."

Itachi Uchiha shook his head decisively, his eyes full of determination.

"I am also a member of the village. Since the third generation of adults entrusted us with the task, I cannot let you face it alone!"

Hearing Uchiha Itachi's words, Kakashi was a little surprised. He glanced at the boy, and found that Uchiha Itachi at this time seemed to be a little different from the calm and indifferent boy in Anbu.

"Don't say such things, it always feels like setting a flag."

As soon as Marutani Kou exited, the tense atmosphere was interrupted.

"What is the flag."

"Anyway, anyway, it's a bad thing," Marutani Kou didn't know how to explain this metaphysics to the other party, so he quickly changed the topic.

"You've all said this to this point. If I don't join in, I'll always feel that I don't have the demeanor of a protagonist!"

"Great," Uchiha Itachi showed a faint smile, "Senior Kakashi and I will definitely protect you."

"Call me brother."

Now that he has agreed, then Marutani Hang has officially become a member of the team, he asked curiously.

"How many people will we have then?"

"Just the three of us."

"Ok?"

Marutani Kou turned his head and stared at the two calm ninjas.

"Didn't you say there was a small team acting together?"

"Yes, a three-person team."

"Is it too late to quit now?"

"you guess."

Feeling cheated, Marutani Kou bid farewell to the two and returned home.

Although I am still a little worried, after all, Orochimaru is indeed a very terrible enemy, but since Kakashi and Uchiha Itachi have been promised, Marutani Ko will naturally fulfill his promise to act with the two, and Orochimaru is scary, but it is not The object I need to consider, his number one opponent must be Konoha's genius ninja Kakashi, and although Uchiha Itachi is younger than himself, and usually does not show his mountains and dew, but he is also Sarutobi Hiruzen The hand-picked task members must not be far behind in real strength.

Speaking of which, Marutani Koko suddenly realized that he didn't know Uchiha Itachi's true strength!
Recalling the scenes he had been in contact with before, Marutani Ko discovered that Uchiha Itachi’s strength has always been a mystery to him, and he did not have a brilliant record like Kakashi, and he had no basis to speculate on his level .

Thinking back to the boy's resolute speech just now, combined with the strength of the possible opponent Orochimaru, Marutani Kou can be sure that Uchiha Itachi's strength is definitely not weak, and may even be very strong.

But these are not what Marutani Hang cares most about now.
