I, Giyuu Uchiha, am not hated!

In the warehouse of Orochimaru base.

"Onions, potatoes, and frozen meat..."

Gui Deng Shui Yue looked at the ingredients in the warehouse and sighed in surprise: "Your prison food is not bad, there is such a thing as meat."

"It's the meat of wild beasts in the forest."

Ranmaru, who often cooperates with Black Hoe Raiga in hunting in the wild, added, "If you buy it from Kirigakure Village, it's worth a lot of money."

"Good eyesight."

Kabuto Yakushi, who had the slug on his back, praised him.

"The quality of the meat is very high, and it is specially used for those experimental subjects with blood stains. Lord Orochimaru needs them to maintain sufficient physical strength to maintain growth."

Although he has betrayed a lot of information about Orochimaru, Kabuto Yakushi still calls Orochimaru by his honorific title, which shows his inner respect for the latter.

"But, I still don't understand..."

Ranmaru asked in confusion: "Since Orochimaru wants to use them for experiments, why bother to cultivate them? Also, Orochimaru can obviously kidnap them directly, why bother to let Wanshe destroy their home first, and then What if I ask you to abduct these children again?"

"What don't you understand? Looking at the corpses in the laboratory, I know that guy is a complete psychopath, and nothing unusual is expected of him."

Kiden Suigetsu doesn't care about these people imprisoned in the base as much as Ranmaru does, so he is not interested.

"If a giant bird flies too high, it will look very small in the eyes of chickens and ducks on the ground."

Kabuto the pharmacist adjusted his glasses with newly replaced lenses, and said with condescending contempt, "People who lack wisdom cannot understand him, so they come to your conclusion."

"You're just a prisoner, don't be so proud."

Gui Deng Shuiyue looked sideways, his teeth grinding against each other and squeaking, "If the teacher hadn't specially ordered me, I would have peeled off your skull and played it as a ball for those crazy guys on the second floor."

"There are always privileges for those who are useful."

Giyuu was not around, and even though there was a time bomb attached to his back, Kabuto Yakushi showed no fear and turned his attention to Ranmaru.

"Let me answer your second question first. Why did Lord Orochimaru let the snakes destroy these villages first, and then asked me to recruit children like you who have blood inheritance limits?"

Ranmaru looked like he was all ears.

"The purpose of destroying these villages and killing all the villagers is to plunge these children into despair and darkness. Some children who survive and see everything they know disappear will either commit suicide on the spot, or they will stay there helplessly and slowly Waiting for death; while others will bravely walk out of the village in order to survive. This is the first level of screening. Those who have no desire to survive will also have no value here and can only be reduced to the second level. Trash on the second floor.

"And my task is to contact these children who have a desire to survive, and tell them that we will provide food and shelter, and guide them to use their own powers. Of course, I also clearly told them that they need to be locked up at the beginning , then if they want more power, they have to take more risks, including the risk of death - usually by this time, most of them will take the initiative to follow me back. "

Yakushi Kabuto paused, "Therefore, they are different from the real prisoners on the second level. In their hearts, they are 'guests' who actively participate and have the power to choose. No matter what Orochimaru-sama wants them to do in the future, They will be more proactive and positive, because everything is their 'own choice'. People with this illusion have more fighting spirit and will grow faster than simple prisoners, which is what we need. of."

"But one day, they will know that you sent that big snake to kill their family members."

Ranmaru said seriously.

"So what if we know? If we don't destroy these villages in advance, then when their abilities are exposed to everyone, they will be the ones who die. Will those villagers, or even their parents, let them go in order to protect themselves? ? Wouldn’t it be crueler for them to have had that experience?”

Ranmaru thought about the people in the village trying to starve him to death, and lowered his head in silence.

Kabuto Yakushi said darkly: "Those who are quick-thinking will understand that Lord Orochimaru not only did not harm them, but instead helped them retain their happy childhood impressions, and also gave them the most precious power and opportunity, reversing the fate of their untimely deaths. Doom. As for those who can't figure it out, they can only become more advanced consumables. After all, some experiments cannot be carried out until they have grown to a certain level..."

"So these people are living in deception from beginning to end?" Ranmaru murmured.

"Happy people are good at self-deception."

Yakushi Kabuto shook his head and said slowly: "Who really likes the truth?"

"At least the teacher never lies."

Kiden Suigetsu's words made Ranmaru's expression improve slightly.

"It will happen sooner or later." Kabuto Yakushi's expression looked quite determined, "This is the fate of being a ninja."

"Whatever you say. People like you who like to play with these little tricks know nothing about teachers."

Ghost Deng Shuiyue didn't want to continue on this topic, so he walked slowly to the depths of the warehouse, opened the door to the inner room, and slipped in.

Kabuto Yakushi heard the noise and quickly followed him: "Please don't touch the things in that room. It's very dangerous for all of us."

Gui Deng Shui Yue obviously had no intention of obeying.

He held a fist-sized metal container with one hand and reached out the door: "What is this?"

"Grenade.

"Yakushi Kabuto snatched the thing away with his hands. Before the attack of the ghost lamp, Suigetsu, he said with a serious face: "This is a weapon improved by Lord Orochimaru. Its power is equivalent to five top-level detonating charms. As long as this ring is used, If you pull it out and throw it out, it will explode. Even ordinary people who can't extract chakra can use it. "

Some villages, such as the Grass Ninja Village, are particularly fond of this new gadget, and Orochimaru can make a lot of money from them every year.

"Oh my god!" Gui Deng Shui Yue shrank her neck and jumped out of the room.

Without it, there are dozens of identical objects on the shelves in the room. If they explode at the same time, they can destroy the entire base.

Yakushi Kabuto spared Ghost Light Suigetsu, put the grenades back on the shelf, and rearranged them neatly.

"What about the one with the word 'Zhen' written on it next to it?" Gui Deng Shui Yue pointed curiously.

"That's a shock bomb, which can make people lose their sense of direction and faint." Yakushi Kabuto introduced.

If you want to catch test subjects without them being killed or injured, this thing is very useful.

"What about this?"

"Smoke grenades specifically targeted at opponents in closed spaces can make people unable to open their eyes."

"and this……"

Curious Baby Guideng Suigetsu had many questions, and Yakushi Kabuto answered them one by one, fearing that this guy might touch something with his stupid hands.

"What is this last thing?" Gui Deng Shuiyue looked at the delicate white bottle.

Kabuto Yakushi was silent for a while, and suddenly said thoughtfully: "Speaking of which, this is a weapon specially developed for the Sharingan after Orochimaru-sama met Shunshen Shisui last time..."

"So what's the use of it?" Gui Deng Shuiyue asked worriedly.

"It can make people..." Before Yaoshi Kabuto finished speaking, a "beep-beep-beep" sound suddenly sounded in the base.

"Someone is here." Yaoshi Kabuto pushed Gui Deng Shuiyue out and locked the door, "Ringed the doorbell, it should be a guest."

"Could it be the guy with fire-like hair that the teacher mentioned?"

Kiden Suigetsu ran out happily, followed by Ranmaru and Yakushi Kabuto, all the way to the monitoring room.

On dozens of black and white screens, scenes from various "cells" and corners of the base were played, with floors and locations marked.

In the display screen named "Exit w1", there is a man wearing a cat mask and wearing a black body.

"This is... Kirigakure's pursuit force?"

The mask triggered memories of ghost lights and water moons.

"No, this is the root ninja of Konoha..."

When the word "root" was mentioned, Yakushi Kabuto wrinkled his nose for a moment and showed strong hostility, but he immediately calmed down and returned to normal.

"I have to go out and see him."

"Do you think I'm going to let you reveal what's going on here?"

Gui Deng Shui Yue grinned and said, "Who knows what the relationship is between you two! I've never even heard of 'roots' or anything like that."

"The Roots is a secret service agency under the ANBU of Konoha. Your teacher is a member of the Uchiha. As soon as he arrived here, Konoha's secret agents followed him here. Do you think this is a coincidence?"

Yakushi Kabuto adjusted the middle part of his glasses, "Konoha's attitude towards Uchiha is very similar to the Fourth Mizukage's attitude towards the Oniden clan. Are you sure you don't want to know why he came?"

Sure enough, after listening to Yakushi Kabuto's words, Kiden Suigetsu was not as determined as before.

Seeing that Gui Deng Shuiyue was hesitant, Yakushi Kabuto pressed a button at the bottom of the screen: "If you press this button, you will know what I said to him. Is that okay?"

Ghost Light Suigetsu and Ranmaru looked at each other, and finally nodded, but the former did not forget to warn: "If you dare to do something strange, this slug will turn you into acid water in an instant!"

"Do not worry."

The pharmacist put on a wide white coat to cover his back and walked out without looking back, "I still cherish my life."

"I don't know who was seeking death and survival yesterday..."

After Gui Deng Shui Yue made a sarcastic comment, he stared closely at the figure on the screen.

A minute later, Kabuto Yakushi opened the secret door in the hidden cave and came face to face with the masked Root Ninja. This is one of the exits from the base.

"A personal letter from Lord Danzo."

The root ninja spoke concisely and took out a scroll and held it in his hand.

"I will hand it over." Yakushi Kabuto reached out to take it, but the root ninja took a step back.

"I was told to deliver it to Orochimaru personally and get a reply. Isn't he here?"

Kabuto Yakushi was silent for a while, feeling a sticky feeling on his back.

He felt that if he dared to let this person in, he might die on the spot.

"Excuse me, are you a ninja from the Aburame clan?"

Kabuto Yakushi adjusted his glasses, smiled warmly, and asked an irrelevant question.

But when the other party saw this smile, he was obviously a little wary: "You know the rules, don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask."

"It's like this. Lord Orochimaru is conducting an insect transformation experiment, and he just needs to know more about parasitic insects..."

"Here you go." The root ninja quickly stuffed the scroll into Yakushi Kabuto's hand, "I'll wait here for a reply."

"I will be back as soon as possible." Kabuto Yakushi squinted his eyes, closed the door, and returned to the monitoring room.

"Give me the stuff!"

Gui Deng Shui Yue snatched the scroll, slowly unfolded it, and browsed the contents.

However, what surprised him was that it was just nonsense like greetings and there was no need to use a ninja tool like a scroll to write it.

"That's it?" He scratched his head in confusion.

"It should be a code." Ranmaru reminded: "Only part of the words are meaningful."

When operating with Black Hoe Raiga, Kirigakure ANBU's orders were given using similar means.

"Sure enough, you are much smarter than this guy who only has water in his head."

The pharmacist came over and said, "Most of the documents at the root are written using a secret technique. Only special fingerprints can see the real content."

As Yakushi Kabuto's handprints changed one after another, the words on the scroll began to tremble, and the pen and ink began to arrange and reorganize as if they came alive.

"Sure enough, it has something to do with the teacher!" Gui Deng Shuiyue exclaimed.

You don't need to read the text, just look at the portrait with dull eyes at the beginning of the volume to know.

Then, the three of them browsed the rest of the content together.

The content of Shimura Danzo's letter is very simple - he first explained what Giyu did in Yunin Village, and then asked Orochimaru to capture or kill Giyu and torture him to find out the latter's purpose of going to the Land of Water. The most important thing is to give a "living human head" carried by Yiyu to the root ninja who delivers the message.

"These people are far away in Konoha, how come they know everything." Kiden Suigetsu sighed.

"It means there are spies in Yunin Village, and your every move is under their observation."

Yakushi Kabuto looked at the box hanging by Kito Suigetsu, "Is this the 'living head' mentioned in the letter?"

"It's none of your business." Gui Deng Shui Yue snorted coldly, and then his face darkened slightly, "It seems that the teacher has been targeted by his own people in their village."

This kind of enemy is the most troublesome, just look at the fate of the Ghost Lantern clan.

Moreover, the letter made it very clear that Uchiha Giyuu should be captured, but life or death would not matter.

"It is unrealistic to subdue him. I will send him away first and say that Orochimaru-sama will do it."

Yakushi Kabuto held his eyes and legs and was about to go out.

"Wait a minute!" Kiden Suigetsu stopped him, with a hint of excitement on his face, "I have a way to confuse the teacher's enemies in Konoha!"

Before anyone else could ask, Kiden Suigetsu immediately raised a finger: "Let's just say that Orochimaru has killed the teacher for experiments. In this way, the teacher's enemies will no longer be watching. He won’t let go.”

"But, he took away all the Sharingan eyes in the base." Kabuto Yakushi shook his head, "Otherwise, I could have given them one, saying it was your teacher's eye. It was just based on empty words, no evidence, and the root of it is I won’t believe it.”

"Who says I don't have evidence? Just wait a moment!"

Gui Deng Shui Yue ran out happily and ran back with a stack of books.

"This is the teacher's summer homework! It is enough to prove that he has fallen into Orochimaru's hands!"

"Well... the Konoha Ninja School should have his handwriting for comparison."

Kabuto Yakushi opened his homework and nodded when he saw the same font written by Yiyong, "I can barely leave it to the root."

"Then let's do it this way." After Kito Suigetsu nodded, Yakushi Kabuto immediately imitated Orochimaru's tone and wrote a reply envelope and put it in it. The main message was that Uchiha Giyuu was seriously injured in the battle and had been used for experiments. The two Sharingan are just twin magatama, not worth caring about at all. As for the "living head", he "Orochimaru" had never seen it before.

This is completely in line with Orochimaru's character. If Hidan's head fell into his hands, he would never give it to anyone else.

In this way, after Kito Suigetsu checked it over and over several times, he asked Kabuto Yakushi to hand over Giyuu's summer homework and the news of his death to the root ninja.

When he returns to Yu Ninja Village, he will meet his boss, the Yu Ninja deacon named Kamuchi. The latter will use his unique secret technique, super pseudo-animal painting, to generate an extremely fast big bird and put the homework and news together. Bring it back to Konoha.

Unfortunately, this summer homework may never reach where it should go - Iruka's desk.

A few hours later, as night fell, war suddenly broke out in Kirigakure Village hundreds of kilometers away.

The Taketori clan, known for their fighting mania and low IQ, suddenly launched an entire clan attack on Kirigakure Village. Most of the Kirigakure ninjas took the initiative to stop the chaos.

However, the Kirigakure elite Jounin Momochi Zabuza, known as the "Ghost Man", only showed his face and disappeared.

He did not die in the battle with the Taketori clan, but quietly sneaked to the big lake behind Kirigakure Village, intending to take advantage of the chaos to assassinate the fourth generation Mizukage Goju Yagura, thus ending the blood mist rule.

If successful, he will become the hero of Kirigakure Village and become the fifth Mizukage.

However, something went wrong, which prevented him from taking action.

"Zabuza-sama."

A beautiful, male and female young ninja appeared behind Momochi Zabuza.

"Bai, you finally got away, why did it take you so long?"

Mochi Zabuza's mouth was wrapped with gauze, his voice was a little dull, and he sounded very impatient.

Bai's eyebrows drooped, and his eyes were filled with tears but he couldn't hold back, "I'm sorry to keep you waiting. There are too many people dead in the village, and I can't leave for a while..."

"Now is not the time to be merciful. When will you become a satisfactory tool!"

Mochi Zabuza complained about Haku's uselessness, but at the same time lowered Haku's head with concern, "Be careful and don't get discovered."

Being touched on the head, a blush appeared on Bai's face.

Momochi Zabuza frowned and looked out from behind the stone: "Things went awry. We were attacked first, and Goju Yagura was already subdued?"

"Who is he?" Bai Wenyan was shocked.

The Fourth Mizukage likes to hang out here. He accidentally saw it when he was practicing ice escape ninjutsu. It should be kept secret.

"See for yourself." Momochi Zabuza informed him, then he stretched out half of his head and looked towards the river beach not far away.

Two men wearing fire cloud robes were below.

One of them was holding a thin-edged sword half as wide as a door, sitting on a fallen dead tree, and seemed to be waiting.

Another man with long hair stood aside and made a mudra with his hands. And the Fourth Mizukage Ya, who was famous in Kirigakure, was lying at his feet with wounds all over his body.

A stream of red energy surged out of Goji Yagura's body and poured continuously into a clay pot, as if performing some kind of magic spell.

"That's a beheading sword!" Bai lowered his voice to hide his surprise, "Is that person Mr. Juuzang Loquat?"

"It should be him, but the other one is also in trouble."

Momochi Zabuza looked at the other figure with an ugly expression on his face, "Orochimaru, one of the Sannin of Konoha, I never expected to meet him in this place."

"Zabuza-sama, since Yagura has been subdued..."

Bai said happily: "You don't need to take risks anymore. We will go back to help right away. Terumi Mei-sama is in great need of manpower..."

However, Zabuza refused simply.

He stared at the two voices below and said coldly: "Those idiots from the Taketori clan don't need me, others can solve them. But Yagura's life should never be taken away by a rebel ninja and an outsider. ”

"Do you want to take action against them?" Bai's face changed to match his name, "But there are two of them, and they are both characters who are not easy to mess with."

"I just had a fight with Yagura. They spent a lot of money, and they should be in a relaxed state. In addition, Orochimaru is using some kind of technique. I should be able to kill him immediately using the silent assassination technique. Then we will deal with Loquat Juzo together, regain the beheading sword, and finally kill Yagura, all the credit will be ours!"

Momochi Zabuza seemed to have seen the scene after the plan was successful, and there was strong enthusiasm in his eyes.

However, when he looked at Bai hopefully, there was only deep worry in the latter's eyes.

"What, are you scared?"

"No." Shiro gritted his teeth, "I am Zabuza-sama's tool. If this is your wish, I will do it for you even if I sacrifice my life."

"You guys, don't say unlucky words at a time like this! If you are willing, prepare to take action!"

Zabuza put his hands together, preparing to release the Kirigakure Jutsu in preparation for the assassination.

However, the next moment, the woods behind him suddenly shook violently.

【somebody is coming? 】

The master and servant both turned their heads at the same time, just in time to see an orange-red fire burst out from the forest, and then passed over their heads with distorted air.

An extremely hot storm swept through the space above the two of them. Momochi Zabuza quickly pressed Shiro's head and lay tightly on the ground.

When they stood up again, they all looked at each other's curled hair in fear, and then they all stuck out their heads and looked down - where the river beach was.

The orange-red fire was like a meteor streaking across the night sky, leaning down from the cliff and rushing towards where Orochimaru and Loquat Juzo were. To be precise, it was behind Orochimaru.

Mochi Zabuza and Haku held their breath. At this moment, they saw the truth of that ball of flames.

A short man wearing a fox mask held a red, notched ninja sword in both hands and swung it towards Orochimaru's neck from top to bottom.

Feeling the crisis, the latter stopped the technique in time and turned around, only to be met by the fatal heat wave and the brilliant blade.

A human head with hair on fire flew out and fell into the rocky beach over a distance of more than ten meters.

Loquat Juuzang on the side finally reacted and raised his sword high to slash at the uninvited guest. The latter dodged the blade and directly stretched out his left hand to grasp the back of the beheading sword and pulled it hard, pulling Loquat Juuzang along with it. Come over.

"Don't get in my way."

Yiyong's cold voice came from behind the mask, and he swung the knife with his right hand to slash at the hands holding the knife of Loquat Juzo.

Seeing this, the latter hurriedly gave up the decapitation sword, but was kicked by a vicious kick on the sword process, and flew out like a folded chicken wing. The dark blood vomited in the process already showed the seriousness of his injury.

Giyuu did not follow up and continue to attack Loquat Juzo, but looked coldly at Orochimaru's headless body at his feet and stood there.

"Stop pretending, I know you can't die from such an attack."

Sure enough, as Giyuu finished speaking, Orochimaru's chopped-off head and body turned into turbid muddy water.

About fifty meters away, a shadow of a soft-bodied creature emerged from the rocky beach and turned into the shape of Orochimaru. It looked like the genie in Aladdin's lamp.

Orochimaru spat out the snake letter and looked at Giyuu with interest, "Ho ho ho, cutting off someone's head without saying anything is not a polite way of saying hello..."

Before he could finish his words, a water line shot at a high speed pierced the center of his eyebrows, and Orochimaru was "killed" again.

Water Breaking Wave without any seals is so convenient.

Orochimaru's body did not fall. He opened his mouth like a snake and spit out a brand new Orochimaru.

But as soon as Orochimaru opened his eyes, Giyuu once again used the breath of fire, the form of one, and Shiranui to block him. The fiery red chakra blade was about to kill him again.

"You are this person..."

[Can’t we communicate? 】

The Orochi Style Substitution Technique requires a large amount of chakra to be used!

Orochimaru opened his eyes almost furiously and stabbed at the enemy. His dark red tongue stretched out like a sharp sword, turning into a python and biting Giyuu's blade.

But in the next moment, the snake was cut open along its trunk as easily as butter.

Orochimaru had already realized that the guy opposite him, who was only the height of a child, was different from his previous enemies. He seemed to be too lazy to say a word to him.

The other party wanted nothing except killing him.

Orochimaru bit his teeth and cut off his tongue. His body crawled on the ground like a real snake. He swayed to the left to dodge several slashes, and finally distanced himself from this lunatic opponent.

However, when he turned around, he saw a giant tiger made entirely of flames, charging towards him with broad steps.

【Unseen technique! Used instantly again? 】

Looking at the white flames, Orochimaru had no time to think about it, he only felt his mouth going dry for a while.

He stretched out his thumb and bit it in his mouth, then put his palm on the ground, intending to use Wan She's body to block this terrifying attack.

[Although Wan Snake's serious injury will affect my relationship with Longdi Cave, I can't control that much...]

However, the imagined scene did not happen.

Wan She did not appear. It's like when a patient has a heart attack and dials 120 but doesn't get through.

Fatal mistake!

【What are you doing? 】

[How about a million snakes like me? 】

Orochimaru raised his right hand and looked at it as if he was stupid, and then was engulfed in flames in a daze.
