Konoha's Destiny Twins

sand hidden

Alluvial gold burial

Platycodon City has disappeared. There are no corpses and no blood. Instead, there is a desert.

Qing Shui stood alone on this golden ocean, surrounded by a chilling silence.

"Are they all dead?" His throat was a little hoarse.

At the last moment, he was at the forefront of the sandstorm pressure, and almost half of the force was carried by him alone.

However, the dissatisfied chakra simply cannot bear such a huge consumption, and the strength of his water escape is also limited.

Facing this kind of pressure as thick and powerful as a mountain

at last

The blue water escape suddenly shattered

I just remember there is sand everywhere

He had no time to cast the second water wall, so he could only rely on the water flow shattered by the sand and rely on "instant water" to escape from this sea of ​​death sand in the blink of an eye.

Orochimaru's Earth Release is so powerful, he should be able to protect them.

In that case, why didn't you show up?

"Is there anyone else?" Qing Shui shouted loudly, his lonely voice echoing in the endless sea of ​​sand.

He walked aimlessly, trying to find survivors

someone who can respond to him

if everyone died

Teacher Kosuke, Orochimaru, Shisui.

Asma, He Yun, Kai.

"And everyone, my companions in Konoha."

Ah, and Megumi

An inexplicable sadness suddenly emerged in my heart

He closed his eyes and murmured to himself: "I'm sorry Zuo Wei."

"I broke my promise."

"I'm still not strong enough to save you." Qing Shui suddenly sat down on the sand.

"Ah, it hurts, it hurts"

Who

Qing Shui dodged, put his left hand on the hilt of his sword, and watched his surroundings vigilantly.

I saw a head struggling to get out of the sand. Shisui, whose face was stained, smiled awkwardly: "Teacher Shimizu, you just stepped on my hand."

Then he showed a gentle smile: "And thank you, teacher, you saved me."

After a while, more and more Konoha ninjas crawled out of the sand. These people were the lucky ones within the protection range of Orochimaru Earth Release.

Orochimaru did not disappoint him, he persisted in earth escape until the end

Qing Shui roughly counted, there were about a hundred Konoha ninjas surviving.

In the face of this level of ninjutsu, he can still save a quarter of the people. Orochimaru's strength is really admirable.

Moreover, Orochimaru actually preserved all the "essence" of Konoha

Not only Shisui, but also Asuma, He Yun, Kai, and even Megumi were among them.

Hui is still alive

The originally silent heart became alive again.

It was only then that Qing Shui felt a little grateful to have survived the disaster.

"Shimizu" Hui held back tears.

"It's okay. We all survived." Qing Shui stroked her long black hair.

"Qingshui, I felt my heart twitch when I saw you fighting that monster." Hui fell into Qingshui's arms and said softly, "But you are so powerful, you have killed such a monster."

Qing Shui remembered that when he was driving away the group of brats, Hui looked back at him several times.

Ha ha

He didn't say he was worried, but his body was very honest.

"I've always been great."

"Then you have to teach me your most powerful moves."

"no problem."

"I will learn all your tricks if they are wrong."

"can."

"Qingshui, I miss my brother."

"Ah, I miss him too."

Orochimaru on the side looked at the endless sea of ​​sand and whispered: "This is Platycodon Castle"

At this time, he looked very miserable, with scattered hair and tattered clothes.

Orochimaru of the Sannin, how many years ago was the last time he was in such a state of embarrassment?

"Haha, Sunagakure is really a generous artist."

Revenge against Konoha?

So the entire Platycodon City was destroyed.

"The Yondaime Kazekage and Chiyo" Orochimaru's cold tone

is hate.

It’s also murderous intent.

"Did you, April-Jun, not be able to hold on at the last moment?"

Illusion? Why do you feel that Orochimaru is questioning?

Is it because his water escape is gone and the pressure is on him?

"There's not enough chakra." Qing Shui said honestly.

"Really?" Orochimaru suddenly lowered his voice and said slowly with that familiar smile on his face, "Why didn't Junji use the reverse flow of time this April?"

"The backlash is too great." Qing Shui felt the need to add something more, so he continued, "Even with chakra, my Water Release cannot withstand such pressure."

"I see," Orochimaru said with a half-smile, "It seems that April-kun still has many secrets that I don't know."

Where is Orochimaru thinking?

"Orochimaru, you are too suspicious." Qing Shui responded calmly, "I am just an ordinary civilian ninja, and there is no limit to blood inheritance."

"In fact, there is nothing worth paying attention to Orochimaru, you should lower your curiosity appropriately."

Indeed, Qingshui picked up a lot of golden fingers and even had some adventures

However, the main reason why he has been able to reach this point is through his own efforts.

Because a person's success is mostly built up from countless bits and pieces of persistent efforts; while a person's failure only requires one mistake to undo all the previous efforts.

"Speaking of which, Orochimaru, if it weren't for my support, you might not be able to persevere." Qing Shui smiled nonchalantly, and he never thought about letting anyone repay this kind of kindness.

"By the way, why did you suddenly accept a disciple?"

"It's just that I have a love for talent."

"I see." Qing Shui also smiled half-heartedly.

"Just as I advised April-Jun to accept Uchiha's apprenticeship, in fact, I have learned something from my two apprentices recently."

Megumi on the side looked confused, and Teacher Orochimaru was also learning from her.

what to learn

"Haha" Qing Shui chuckled.

"April-kun may have some misunderstandings about me." Orochimaru suddenly said.

"Maybe." Qingshui was noncommittal, "But time will tell a lot of things."

"Yes, only time is eternal" Orochimaru seemed to be muttering to himself.

eternal

Yes, the other party has already started pursuing eternal life.

So Orochimaru has always been Orochimaru, just because no Qingshui touched his core interests.

So now the other party’s attitude is really good

As for those conflicts of interest, he should not encounter them for the time being.

After all, the two not only had many "happy" transactions and helped each other until this time they shared the same fate.

However, Qingshui is still a little unbelievable. What can a being of Orochimaru's level learn from two brats?

Make sure it’s not for the “eyes”

So he confirmed again and again: "What can we really learn?"

"Geniuses often have very extreme traits and perceptions."

"When you don't know where the future lies, look at how those talented people move forward. Maybe you can get some inspiration."

"Really?" Qing Shui felt that what Orochimaru said seemed to make sense.

Maybe he can also learn something from "Shunshen Shisui"

Or maybe learn something from Kei?

After all, after the threshold of immortality was restricted, his path to a higher level was gone.

Since "quantity" can no longer be violently improved, we can only improve "quality".

Therefore, his next development path is to move in a "qualitative" direction, that is, to make up for his shortcomings, such as illusions, and then improve and strengthen his water escape, thunder escape and earth escape.

In this way, as long as he persists, his strength can still slowly increase.

"Teacher is here." Orochimaru said suddenly.

Qing Shui followed Orochimaru's gaze, and sure enough, there was a middle-aged man leading a large group of Konoha ninjas heading in this direction.

And the leading middle-aged ninja in the middle is clearly the Sandaime Hokage.
