Konoha: I have a devil fruit tree

Konoha Village, Hokage Building.

Kami Teru Shu was sitting at the Hokage's desk, looking at Tsunade who was leisurely drinking a small drink, Suzaku, Shimei, Uzumaki Momohime and others who were helping the Hokage process the pile of documents on the desk at an extraordinary speed. The four mute people had helpless expressions on their faces.

Seeing this scene, Kami Teru Shuu finally understood why he had sent letters to Tsunade several times in the past two years, asking her to return Suzaku and Siming, but he was rejected every time for various reasons.

Such an efficient and useful secretary, if it were him, he wouldn't let her go.

"Boy, there's no need to put on such a bitter face."

Tsunade held the wine glass in one hand, looked at Kamiteru Shu, and said: "After a while, Momoji and Shizune are trained, I will definitely return Suzaku and Shiming to you."

"I hope so."

Kamiteru shook his head helplessly. Tsunade had said this countless times.

Tsunade completely ignored the helplessness on Kamiteru's face and continued: "By the way, there seems to be some friction between the village and Sunagakure recently. Shikaku suggested building a line of defense there. Please allocate some funds. "

After the Fire Country annexed the original Rain Country, its territory has been directly bordered by the Earth Country and the Wind Country, without the buffer of the small countries in the middle. This has also led to direct friction between the Fire Country and them.

The Country of Fire and the Country of Wind were okay, because they had cooperated in the past, and the Country of Wind had made enough profits from the war three years ago, so the two countries had been in the honeymoon period without much conflict.

But in the past three years, the Fire Country and the Earth Country have often had frictions over border issues, which has also caused Konoha to spend a huge amount of resources to build a line of defense at the border between the two countries.

Now, three years have passed since the Third Ninja World War, and the alliance of the three major ninja villages has completely collapsed. More importantly, the resources that the Kingdom of Wind obtained from the war have been exhausted, and it has begun to become restless. Woke up.

Building a line of defense on the border requires a large amount of money, and now the decision-making power of the Fire Nation's funding application for Konoha Village lies in the hands of Kami Terusuu.

Hearing this, Shen Zhaoxiu narrowed his eyes and said: "Of course there is no problem with funding, but it cannot be given in vain. Let's exchange it for chakra."

When Tsunade heard this, she also agreed readily: "No problem, I will give you the chakra as soon as the funds arrive."

When Kamiteru saw Tsunade's cheerful attitude, he knew that she must have been prepared to make such a request, so he didn't care and said: "You ask Suzaku to make an application report and send it to the daimyo. I will do it when I get back." Approval."

In the past few years, Tsunade has also sent some of Konoha Village's "Blood Succession Limit" and "Secret Technique" chakras to Kami Teru Shu, but the ones she received were all insignificant abilities, and every time she applied for funds , Konoha will give some powerful "Blood Succession Limit" chakra.

For example, when she applied for a huge amount of funds last time, Tsunade gave the chakra of the Hyuga clan, but this Kamoteshu had already used it once.

I wonder what kind of chakra Tsunade will give this time.

Although Konoha still has some "Blood Succession Limit" and "Secret Technique" chakras that Kamoteshu has not yet obtained. If Kamoteshu really had an idea, there are many ways to collect all the chakras, but he did not do so. Because there is no need, because even if those abilities are obtained, it is just the icing on the cake for him now.

Kami Terujiu chatted with Tsunade for a while, then stood up to say goodbye, and then went all the way to Orochimaru's home. His main purpose of coming to Konoha this time was to attend the wedding of Namikaze Minato and Uzumaki Kushina, and secondly, Meet Orochimaru.

Orochimaru has been obsessed with the study of souls ever since he received the [Soul Fruit] given to him by Kami Terushu. With the ability of the [Soul Fruit], he doesn’t have to use any experiments he wants to do. When it comes to living people, the 'Homitz' made from the [Soul Soul Fruit] is enough for him to study for a while.

The location of Orochimaru's home is very remote, and there are many barriers and traps around it, so his home is considered a 'forbidden area' in the entire Konoha Village. Very few people come back to Konoha Village, and it is difficult to do so without Orochimaru's permission. Someone could get close to his home.

When Kami Terusu arrived at the door of Orochimaru's house, there was a face growing on the iron door.

"Your Highness, you are here."

After confirming Kamiteru's identity, the door opened on its own and said, "Please come in, Lord Orochimaru is waiting for you inside."

"..."

Under the guidance of the door, Kami Teru Shu walked into Orochimaru's house... Well, this place is more appropriate to be called a laboratory than a home.

Along the way, under the guidance of various Homitz created by Orochimaru using the ability of the [Soul Fruit], Kami Teruxiu came to a huge underground laboratory. In the laboratory, Orochimaru was preparing a bunch of experimental equipment. With the help of Orochimaru, he studied a big snake as big as a bucket. What surprised Kamitarosu was that two small horns the size of thumbs grew on the head of the snake being studied by Orochimaru. , and there is a circular seal pattern in the middle of the two horns.

Under Orochimaru's control, the seal flickered with light, and when the light flashed, Kamizho Shunō felt a familiar chakra fluctuation from the snake's body.

It’s the aura of “magic”!

Click!Click!Click! ~

Suddenly, the long body of the big snake that was being studied by Orochimaru suddenly twisted violently, and the scales on its body rubbed together, making an unpleasant sound like metal friction. Then the seal on its forehead suddenly collapsed, followed by an invisible force. The energy escapes from the collapse seal.

Shenzhao Xiu can clearly feel what the collapsing energy is, it is natural energy!

As the seal shattered and the natural energy escaped, the snake's form also changed at a speed visible to the naked eye. The most obvious thing was that the horns on its head shrank back.

"Sure enough, it still doesn't work!"

Orochimaru looked at the languid Orochi, shook his head in disappointment, then took off the gloves in his hands, turned around and looked at Kamiteru Shu, with a smile that looked weird no matter how he looked at it, and said: "Your Highness, you didn't greet me well. , please forgive me."

Since obtaining the ability of [Soul Fruit], Orochimaru's temperament has also undergone tremendous changes, which has added a lot of weirdness to his originally somewhat dark temperament. Anyway, at a glance, the first impression is that it gives people a sense of both... A mysterious and scary feeling.

Kami Teruxiu ignored Orochimaru's 'sneaky smile', his eyes still stayed on the big snake, and asked: "Are you studying "senjutsu"? "

It stands to reason that after Orochimaru obtained the [Soul Fruit], his soul defects must have been repaired, and Orochimaru, whose soul has no defects, should have been able to practice the magic of "Ryuchi Cave".

Since you can already practice cultivation, why do you still need to study in this way?

Could it be that Orochimaru's inability to practice the celestial art of "Ryuchi Cave" was not due to any soul defect, but some other reason?

"Yes."

Orochimaru nodded and said: "But as you can see, Your Highness, it failed again."

Orochimaru didn't say how much he coveted the power of "Senjutsu", but he was definitely interested, so he never stopped researching this power.

However, after obtaining the ability of [Soul Fruit], the study of souls is Orochimaru's 'main business', and everything else can only be regarded as part-time interests in his spare time. As for Orochimaru's research on souls, as long as he has two parts.

One is the forbidden technique "Earth Reincarnation" left behind by the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama, and the other is naturally the "Undead Reincarnation" developed by Orochimaru himself based on "Earth Reincarnation".

Kami Teru Shu didn't know to what stage Orochimaru had reached in his research on these two forbidden arts, but thinking about it, he knew that after obtaining the ability of the [Soul Fruit], Orochimaru's research on the soul must have far exceeded the original trajectory, and As he became more and more understanding of the soul, his research on these two forbidden arts naturally progressed far beyond his original trajectory.

However, Kami Teru Shu is not interested in these two forbidden techniques. He came here this time to invite Orochimaru to come out and let him go undercover in the "Akatsuki Organization".

In the original plot trajectory, Orochimaru was discovered secretly conducting human research in Konoha Village because of his cooperation with Danzo, and then was tricked by Danzo, and then he became a rebel ninja. Now, Danzo Shimura has already There are no dead scum left, and Orochimaru has no much interest in human body research, so naturally there will be no drama about betraying Konoha.

Orochimaru looked at Kami Teruxiu and asked, "I wonder why His Highness came to me this time?"

"There is indeed something I need you to help me with."

Kami Teru Shu nodded, and then said: "But before that, let me tell you some secrets about the truth about the ninja world." Then, Kami Teru Xiu told some secrets about Uchiha Madara, Uchiha Madara and Chi. Tehashirama told Orochimaru one by one about the transformation of the chakras of the two sons of "Sage of Six Paths", as well as the "ancestor of chakra" Otsutsuki Kaguya and the "Ten-Tails", and then expressed his hope that he would go to "Akatsuki". Organization" undercover proposal.

Kami Teru Shu felt that with Orochimaru's combat power, it would be a waste to stay at home doing research. Moreover, based on Orochimaru's current level of research on "Unscrupulous Earth Reincarnation", if he was placed in the "Akatsuki Organization", it would definitely be able to accelerate the progress. The time of Uchiha Madara's resurrection.

"Madara Uchiha... and the first Hokage actually have this kind of relationship with the legendary "Ancestor of Ninja, Sage of Six Paths". "

"There are also tailed beasts. They are actually creatures that were split from the chakra of the "Ten Tails" and then created by the Sage of Six Paths. How interesting! "

"What's even more interesting is that Madara Uchiha is still alive."

"Interesting, really interesting."

After Orochimaru listened to the 'story' told by Kami Teru Shu, a very interested smile immediately appeared on his face. Then he looked at Kami Teru Shu, stretched out his long tongue and licked his lips, and said with a sly smile: " Your Highness, you should have told me about this kind of thing earlier."

"It's not too late to tell you now."

Kami Teruxiu felt a little uncomfortable under Orochimaru's gaze, frowned and said, "How about it, are you interested in my proposal?"

"Of course I'm interested!"

Without thinking, Orochimaru nodded and said: "I am very interested in the power of the legendary "Six Paths Sage". "After saying that, he stuck out his tongue again, and Shen Teruxiu couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body.

"Since you're interested, that's easy."

Seeing that Orochimaru was interested in his proposal, Kamteru Shu immediately said: "Then you need to leave Konoha as a rebel ninja. After you leave Konoha, people from the "Akatsuki Organization" will definitely find you, and then Recruit you.

As for the specific operation, I will discuss it with you in detail after Minato's wedding. "

"No problem." Orochimaru nodded directly and agreed.

After Kami Teru Shu received Orochimaru's answer, he didn't stay here any longer and left Orochimaru's house directly.

"Teacher Orochimaru, success!"

Not long after Kami Teru Shu left, a young man who looked to be in his teens, wearing a large lab coat and a pair of round glasses on his face held a record book in his hand and ran to Orochimaru excitedly, full of excitement. He said to him excitedly: "Teacher Orochimaru, it's successful.

That experimental subject successfully fused with the cells of the first Hokage! "

"Oh? Did it work?"

Orochimaru didn't seem to care much about the news the boy brought. He took the record book from him with a calm expression. After a brief glance, he looked at the boy and said, "Kabuto, I'm leaving Konoha soon. Do you want to come with me?"

The boy Orochimaru calls 'Kabuto' is Yakushi Kabuto who will be nicknamed 'Kabuto Orochimaru' in the future.

Because Shimura Danzo died too early, Yakushi Kabuto was saved from the fate of being trained as a spy. Then he was discovered by Orochimaru a year ago, replaced the position that originally belonged to Mitarashi Anko, and was taken in as a disciple by Orochimaru.

At this time, in Orochimaru's residence, apart from Orochimaru himself, there is only one normal person, Yakushi Kabuto. The others are all Homitz created by Orochimaru using the [Soul Fruit]. From this, it can be seen that Orochimaru Maru valued Yakushi Kabuto.

"Leaving Konoha?"

The mature Yakushi Kabuto heard Orochimaru's words and immediately understood the meaning of 'leave' in his mouth. He was stunned for a moment, and then asked in confusion: "Teacher Orochimaru, why did you leave Konoha? Can you tell me My reason?"

Although Kabuto Yakushi respects Orochimaru, there is another person in Konoha Village whom he respects even more, and that is Yakushi Nonou who took care of him when he was young.

Also because of Danzo's early death, under the arrangement of this old coin, Yakushi Nonou, who was supposed to die in the hands of Yakushi Kabuto, also survived and completely eliminated his identity as a 'spy'. Served as director of an orphanage.

Kabuto Yakushi respects and even admires Orochimaru very much, but compared to this respect and admiration, he has deeper feelings for Yakushi Nonou, whom he has nurtured, so Kabuto Yakushi hesitates about Orochimaru's invitation.

It was precisely because of his hesitation that he greatly changed his future destiny.
