Konoha's Love Master

"Teacher! This Yannin team has been completely wiped out!"

On the border of the front line, deep in the woods, Rope Tree came back with a little excitement.

Orochimaru and several Konoha ninjas are waiting for him.

"That's right, your water escape talent is really strong, I'll help you get Shui Duanbo after you get back."

Orochimaru reached out to touch Nawaki's head, although his face looked gloomy, but he was already familiar with his Nawaki, but he could easily sense the care and comfort in his expression.

Before he knew it, he had been apprenticed to Orochimaru for five years.

"Let's go, clean up the battlefield, see if we can get information, and the latest movements of Yanyin..."

Orochimaru looked to the west, which was the direction of Sand Hidden Village, and thought to himself: "The team led by Tsunade is fighting against Sand Hidden. The current situation is very easy, but this is not normal. Sand Hidden suffered heavy losses three years ago. , no no no..."

"Teacher, I'll take a look!"

After hearing what he said, Nawaki, who was still in a state of excitement, immediately ran to Iwa Shinobi who fell to the ground.

"Wait! Don't be rash! First..."

Orochimaru recovered from his own thoughts, and saw the figure of the tree rushing out again, and just said the reminder.

Suddenly, a bright light shines in the darkness, just at the foot of the rope tree!

"boom!--"

A powerful explosion engulfed the rope tree.

Orochimaru:"……"

"Rope... tree..."

He didn't scream, let alone panic, but walked over with a gloomy expression, and squatted down beside the bloody rope tree.

"I'm very sorry…"

"Oshemaru...old...teacher..."

Shengshu's mouth was bleeding, and he slowly closed his eyes forever.

Orochimaru just watched silently, without saying a word.

"Master Orochimaru..."

The other ninjas didn't dare to approach him, as if what they were facing now was not the commander of the frontline force, but a furious snake demon.

"I didn't expect...you would die suddenly."

Orochimaru's hoarse voice suddenly sounded.

In this short moment, he remembered many past events with this disciple.

In five years, this child was like a warm flame that melted his cold heart.

Shouting, full of ideals, determined to be Hokage...

Shengshu is almost completely opposite to his personality, but he is like another side of him, so he can't help feeling close to him.

He is a pure pragmatist, but Zhishu is a complete idealist.

But Zhishu will always live happier than him, because with such a selfless ideal, Shengshu seems to be shrouded in a layer of brilliance.

"Ninjas are really fragile."

life…

What exactly is it?

If you are destined to die, what is the point of coming to this world?

Orochimaru took out the scroll and sealed Nawaki's body inside.

Then slowly got up, opened his mouth wide, and swallowed the scroll.

Other Konoha ninjas: "..."

"Come on, come with me to the Yanyin frontline gathering place."

Orochimaru, as usual, moved forward at an even speed, maintaining the best shot condition.

Only those pair of apricot-yellow snake pupils faintly shone with the most indifferent light in the world.

From now on, I, Orochimaru, don't need fetters, justice, or... the village.

As long as eternal life!

I will not die young like my parents and rope trees.

I want to learn all ninjutsu, no matter good or evil, right from wrong.

Even if everyone in the world is dead, let yourself live to the end.

Until then…

Maybe I can answer this question.

What is the meaning of life.

...

Rain country.

"came back?"

When Yahiko, Nagato and Xiaonan returned to the wooden house, they saw the most familiar scene.

Under the eaves, Hyuga Wuya was lying on a couch with his legs raised high on the window sill, holding a book "Research on the Growth of Body Parts Stimulated by Chakra" in his hand.

For three years, it seemed like he'd been working on this, occasionally letting out an eerie laugh.

"Well, I'm back."

Yahiko and Nagato tacitly took a step behind Konan, letting her walk in front.

There is a wooden stool under the window sill, which was originally used to match the couch, but it is a pity that Sun Xiangwuye seems to prefer to rest his legs on the window sill.

Xiao Nan walked to his side with a calm expression, sat down on the wooden bench, moved his legs down, placed them on his lap, fisted with his small hands, and tapped lightly.

Yahiko and Nagato turned a blind eye to this.

"Teacher, today we eliminated the defected ninjas in the three towns to the west..."

Xiao Nan spoke eloquently, without too many ups and downs in his voice.

Compared with the crispness three years ago, the current voice seems to be much cooler.

Hinata Wuye also thought that Xiaonan might become lively with her own careful care and company.

But no.

Most of a person's temperament comes from nature, and only a small part is affected by the day after tomorrow.

With his care, Xiao Nan is just doing herself more relaxedly, maintaining the most comfortable living condition.

But recently, she has clearly started to feel anxious.

Wuye sighed inwardly.

There is nothing to comment on their current experience, because before they set off, he had already scouted with blank eyes in advance.

And during their actions, there was a paper clone with half of the chakra lurking nearby, just in case.

Therefore, he saw everything that Xiaonan and the others did.

Including Xiaonan deliberately falling into danger...

"Are you going to keep doing this?" He suddenly asked calmly.

The three of Yahiko were stunned for a moment, unable to figure out what he meant.

Hyuga Wuye glanced at Xiaonan, lifted his legs from hers, and sat up straight.

"I mean…"

He hesitated for a while, glanced at Xiao Nan's gentle and quiet face, and moved away again.

"What are you going to do if I'm not with you anymore?"

His soft words pierced the sky like a bolt of lightning.

Xiao Nan's face suddenly turned pale, and his two little hands were clenched tightly together, but after taking a deep breath deliberately, he slowly let go, and his expression returned to calm.

Yahiko saw all the changes in Xiaonan's face, sighed in his heart, took a step forward, and said to Hinata Wuya seriously: "Teacher, we want to find some like-minded partners, and work with them to change this country so that it will no longer cry .”

Wuye didn't nod or shake his head.

Jilai didn't know when he appeared under the eaves, leaning against the wall with his arms folded, wondering what he was thinking.

In the past three years, many ninjutsu suitable for Nagato and Yahiko to learn were selected by him.

Only Xiao Nan developed the paper secret technique completely independently.

Jiraiya also wants to know what Nagato, who has the eyes of reincarnation, wants to do and what changes it will bring to the ninja world.

"Our organization does not make enemies of Ninja Village, nor does it compete with big countries. We only do things that are good for this country and the common people..."

When Yahiko talked about his ideals, his whole body seemed to be shining brightly: "One day, people will understand us and believe in us, and we will walk towards peace together."

"What about you?" Wuye asked again.

Nagato just looked at Yahiko's profile, and said softly: "I will always follow Yahiko."

Xiaonan remained silent.

Hinata Muya skipped her, looked at Yahiko and smiled: "Have you thought about the name of the organization?"

Yahiko was taken aback, his face flushed a little: "There are only three people, it's too embarrassing to name them."

Xiao Nan suddenly raised his head and said calmly, "Teacher, you can help us choose an organization name."

When Yahiko and Nagato heard the words, they immediately looked at Wuye with anticipation.

Hyuga Wuye was stunned for a moment, then the corner of his mouth twitched, as if he had witnessed history.

"Akatsuki, Akatsuki."

His voice was very soft, but like a flame, it lit up in the boundless darkness.

"Dawn, the first ray of light that cuts through the night."

Hyuga Wuye looked at the three of them.

The sound is soft.

"If there is no light in this country, then you..."

"Just be the only light."
