Above Naruto

An abandoned village somewhere in the Kingdom of Sound, in a large forest.

The tall trees stand tall, lush and leafy, blocking out the sunlight in the sky, leaving only a little bit of mottled light and shadow to shine through, making it appear quiet and cold.

The breeze blows by, rustling, but it makes people feel chilly. The environment changes many factors, and this is the case in Liao's uninhabited place.

Naruto and Xianglan came here, and found this place with Xianglan's powerful perception and the information obtained in exchange for gold.

"It is indeed in line with Orochimaru's temperament. It is slightly moist, very suitable for the survival of snakes, and it is far away from the crowd. No wonder Orochimaru would come to a place like this." Naruto looked at the large forest in front of him, nodded, and said something.

He sensed it carefully and found that there was indeed an evil aura, which was somewhat similar to Orochimaru's curse seal. It seemed that he was looking in the right place.

"Let's go in, Koso." Naruto said to Koso.

Xiang Lu nodded, and the two walked into the forest.

A cold wind blew and rolled up the dead leaves on the ground. Xiang Ling was a little nervous and leaned against Naruto and hugged Naruto's arm.

Naruto looked around, and there were some eyes around them that seemed to be watching the two of them. He calmly led Xiang Ling into the depths.

The forest is dark and cannot be illuminated by sunlight. It is indeed cold and gloomy, which is naturally suitable for snakes to survive.

After about 5 minutes, Naruto stopped.

He looked up and saw a house building in front of him. It was under the ground, like a cave entrance. A stronger evil aura was emanating from it. It must be Orochimaru's lair.

"Is this here? There's a bad smell in it," Xiang Liao looked curiously at the house below, looking left and right.

"Almost the same, I can feel his aura." Naruto nodded and said affirmatively.

Whoosh!

A gust of wind blew up the dead leaves, and a figure suddenly appeared in front of Naruto.

Xiang Ling was immediately alert, her chakra was running, and her eyes became sharp. She stretched out her right hand and pointed her white jade-like palm at the person.

Click!

The sound of metal clashing came, like a chain. A golden iron chain with a faint light extended from Xiang Phosphorus's arm, dancing like a dragon, wrapping around the person in the future.

At the critical moment, within a few breaths, Xiang Phosphorus struck like thunder, achieving such a result, which shows that his strength is not ordinary.

This girl!Kabuto Yakushi looked at Xiang Lu, with cold sweat flowing out. He had been careless just now, and he didn't expect that Xiang Lu would take action, and he would catch him directly with thunderous means.

This is the sealing technique!He wanted to break free, but the chakra seemed to have stagnated and was running extremely slowly. Kabuto Yakushi looked at the iron chains on his body in surprise, and his heart sank to the bottom of his heart.

"Xiang Phosphorus, let him go. I know this person. I haven't seen him for a long time." Naruto waved his hand and smiled.

Xiang Ling glanced at Naruto, her red eyes still sharp. She waved her hand gently, and the chakra chain turned into light spots and dissipated.

"Naruto-kun, long time no see. Orochimaru-sama, I would like to say hello to you." Yakushi Kabuto saluted, bowed slightly and was quite respectful.

"I knew on the way just now that Orochimaru had noticed my arrival. I didn't expect that he would send you here." Naruto smiled and walked up to Yakushi Kabuto. His sky-blue eyes were covered with a layer of darkness and murderous intent. It was turbulent, and the temperature dropped to a biting chill.

"You know we still have some grudges, isn't he afraid that I will kill you?" Naruto sneered, staring into Yakushi Kabuto's eyes.

boom!

Kabuto Yakushi opened his eyes wide, and his dark eyes were tearing at his body like a whirlpool, as if he saw a demon roaring and grabbing with huge claws.

Kabuto Yakushi's face turned pale, his body was trembling, and he was breathing heavily.

He looked at Naruto in fear, not daring to meet Naruto's eyes and avoiding.

"Lord Orochimaru, I believe you will not do this." Kabuto Yakushi squatted on the ground and said with difficulty.

His brain was in splitting pain, his soul seemed to be hurt, and he felt a sense of powerlessness all over his body.

"Is that so? It seems like Orochimaru knows something." Naruto smiled knowingly, then darkened. He looked at Yakushi Kabuto and said, "Lead the way."

"Yes, Naruto-sama!" Kabuto Yakushi bowed deeply, the fear on his face slightly dissipated.

He walked in front, leading Naruto and Karin into Orochimaru's lair.

Orochimaru's lair was built underground. It was very cold, which suited his temperament. It was winding along the way, and the dim candlelight drifted far away, flickering on and off.

"Is Sasuke here too?" Naruto asked.

"He's gone now. Sasuke went to another base a few days ago to receive training from Lord Orochimaru. It will take a long time before he comes back." Kabuto Yakushi explained.

"Is that so? Has Sasuke's strength increased?" Naruto nodded and asked again.

"Of course it has improved, but it is not as good as Naruto-sama." Yakushi Kabuto complimented, thinking of the scene just now, his heart felt cold.

&n

bsp; Just looking at each other made him lose the ability to fight. It was really unfathomable. Naruto's strength had grown so strangely in the past year and a half.

"Of course, Naruto is the best!" Xiang Ling said happily, as if she was the one praising her.

"That's natural." Kabuto Yakushi agreed flatteringly.

The three of them didn't say much. About 5 minutes later, they finally walked through the long corridor and came to a room similar to a living room.

There are some seats here, and Orochimaru is sitting on the main seat.

He still looks the same, with disheveled hair, amber vertical eyes as sinister as a poisonous snake, a naturally pale face, and a hemp rope wrapped around his waist. His whole person is like a poisonous snake, giving people a feeling of depression and uneasiness.

"Naruto-kun, why did you want to come to my place?" Orochimaru said with a hoarse voice and a smile.

"I just have something to do with you." Naruto walked forward and looked at Orochimaru carefully. "You are in good condition. It seems that the so-called immortal reincarnation has a certain effect."

"I didn't expect you to even know this. Naruto-kun has collected a lot of information over the years." Orochimaru said with a sinister smile.

"After all, you have captured Sasuke, so naturally I want all my attention." Naruto said seriously.

"Humph!" Orochimaru laughed and got to the point, "Let's talk about Naruto-kun's purpose."

"Give me the Akatsuki organization's ring." Naruto said.

Orochimaru was startled, his amber vertical pupils widened, revealing surprise and confusion.

"You actually joined the Akatsuki organization!" He said in surprise and looked at Naruto.

This couldn't help but surprise him. Naruto was the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki, and the Akatsuki organization was currently collecting tailed beasts. This was a well-known fact. Naruto's doing so was tantamount to sending a sheep into the tiger's mouth.

Kabuto Yakushi on the side also had a look of disbelief. He was truly shocked. He really couldn't imagine the benefit of Naruto doing this.

"Are you surprised? I don't think it's anything." Naruto spread his hands and said casually.

"You are the Jinchuuriki of the Nine-Tails, Naruto-kun. Is it a lack of consideration to join the Akatsuki organization like this? You must know that they have been keeping an eye on the Nine-Tails in your body for a long time." Orochimaru said solemnly.

He didn't care about Naruto, in his heart he wished that Naruto would die, but that would have no meaning. He wanted Naruto to die, but he didn't want the organization to benefit.

"This issue is not your concern, you just need to give me the ring, Orochimaru." Naruto waved his hand, unwilling to say any more.

There is indeed nothing to talk about with Orochimaru. Their starting points are different, and their original intention to deal with the problem is also wrong.

Orochimaru took a deep look at Naruto. This brat was beyond his understanding. Those who could be absorbed by the Akatsuki organization were all powerful enough to compete with shadow-level warriors.

And Naruto has experienced a year of growth, and is so powerful that even Orochimaru can't see through it. There is a strong sense of danger in his heart.

"Kabuto, bring that thing over here." Orochimaru ordered to Yakushi Kabuto.

Yakushi Kabuto nodded and entered a secret room. Soon after, he took out a shelf with a severed hand on it and a simple ring on the little finger.

Kabuto Yakushi walked to Orochimaru's side, put his severed hand on the table, and retreated.

"This is what you need, the ring codenamed 'Sora'." Orochimaru took off the ring, stretched out his hand, and handed it to Naruto.

Naruto took it, looked around, and gently put it on the little finger of his left hand.

"Very good, it seems that the Akatsuki organization is also somewhat reliable." Naruto nodded with satisfaction and accepted the ring.

"Since the ring has been given to you, if nothing happens, please leave here, Naruto-kun." Orochimaru said hoarsely, looking at Naruto with his eyes.

"Don't worry, Orochimaru, besides this matter, I have another matter that needs your help." Naruto said seriously.

"Oh." Orochimaru was stunned and became a little curious, "What is it? You must know that the relationship between us is not friendly. You confirm that you need my help."

He was also interested in Naruto's request, with curiosity.

"You are the only one who can help me with this." Naruto smiled.

"What it is, I should be able to know." Orochimaru spoke.

"I know that you have been studying the so-called art of immortality. Even immortal reincarnation is the result of your research. To a certain extent, immortality is indeed what you said." Naruto said.

"But it's not enough. I think you know it best. I also know that you have mastered the forbidden technique created by the Second Hokage - Earth Reincarnation. Although I don't know the specific function of this technique, the information obtained by exchanging gold , it should have something to do with the soul.”

"Do you want the results of my research and the art of reincarnation in dirty soil?" Orochimaru stood up suddenly, with a vigilant look, and murderous intent lurking deep in his eyes.

"Don't be murderous towards me, Orochimaru, we have a deal. It's a mutually beneficial relationship, and we don't intend to rob it." Naruto waved his hand and looked kindly.

"Then what do you want?" Orochimaru lowered his voice and became tense.
