He lives in Hokage and controls the ninja world by cultivating immortality.

"Li Ke, you are really an interesting person. If you have the chance, you must come to our Konoha to sit down."

A smile appeared on Orochimaru's face and he stretched out his white hand to Li Ke.

However, Orochimaru's smile looked more and more perceptive in Li Ke's eyes.

This is a dangerous person. I remember every time he laughed in the original work, Orochimaru might have thought of something interesting, but for others, something bad was definitely about to happen.

Those white hands looked harmless, but Li Ke felt like a poisonous snake.

By the way, if Orochimaru's Ninjutsu Hidden Shadow Snake Hand is bitten by him suddenly while shaking hands, the situation will not be good.

I remember that in the original work, the second pillar was bitten by Orochimaru, so Orochimaru planted a curse seal. Once the curse seal was formed, it became a separate space for Orochimaru.

At that time, there will be a snake parasitic in my body, which makes my scalp numb just thinking about it.

But if you think about it carefully, Orochimaru has not defected to Konoha yet. Even if it has started its human experiments, it is definitely just getting started.

He probably hasn't found Chonggo yet and hasn't invented the curse seal yet, so this situation shouldn't exist.

Uh... No, now is not the time to think about this, but to think about how to deal with the situation at hand.

……

"What? Little brother, don't you even have the courage to shake my hand?"

Orochimaru's eyes showed a joking expression, and the amusement on his face became even stronger.

It was clear that this was a complete conspiracy, and he wanted to see what Li Ke should do.

And Li Ke could only laugh when he saw this.

"Your Excellency Orochimaru kindly invites you. I will naturally go when I have the opportunity. I have a pleasant cooperation this time. When I go back, I will work hard as a wage earner."

Li Ke stretched out his hand and shook it with Orochimaru.

Orochimaru's eyes were smiling, but he couldn't help but feel a little murmuring in his heart.

Why is Li Ke so sure that I will miss the position of the Fourth Hokage?

Li Ke repeatedly called Orochimaru a wage earner, which had to cause Orochimaru to think slightly.

Is this just a simple psychological tactic by Li Ke?

However, Orochimaru was currently in the negotiation field and had no time to think carefully.

Seeing Li Ke's hand holding his own tightly, Orochimaru's lips curled up into a cold smile.

"Anyway, let me give you a greeting gift this time... eh!" Orochimaru's smile became even more charming. Just when Orochimaru wanted to make the next move, the smile on his face suddenly froze.

His body instinctively wanted to pull his hand back, but Li Ke held Orochimaru's hand tightly.

The next moment, Orochimaru's expression suddenly changed. From being sure of victory at the beginning, he became a little twitching, and even an imperceptible drop of cold sweat broke out on his forehead unconsciously.

"This brat!"

Orochimaru was secretly frightened. At this time, he could not think about giving Li Ke a gift, and he struggled to withdraw his palm.

Li Ke was not as strong as Orochimaru, so Orochimaru was still able to break free.

After retracting his palm, Orochimaru immediately made a fist with his palm, and kept rubbing his palm with his fingers. The excruciating pain made Orochimaru grit his teeth.

"Lord Orochimaru, it's a pleasure to cooperate with you this time."

Picking up the document signed by Orochimaru, Li Kezhan smiled, made a goodbye gesture to Orochimaru, and then walked out of the hall with Dodai without looking back, leaving Orochimaru alone in a daze.

After a long time, another person walked out from behind the empty hall.

It was Shimura Danzo.

As the root of Konoha, you should be buried underground and be ready to control everything, so how can you show your face easily?

Walking to Orochimaru's side, Danzo's expression remained unchanged as he looked at Li Ke's departing figure.

"He is the Kumogakure genius that Hiruzen said was about to rise? What do you think..."

Danzo glanced slightly towards Orochimaru, but found that Orochimaru looked wrong.

At this moment, Orochimaru's face was a little exaggerated, his right hand was constantly rubbing his palm, and there were faint beads of sweat on his head.

"This brat! He is indeed very sinister!!"

Orochimaru's words almost came out of his throat.

At this moment, the originally white palm of his left hand was charred black, which was a clear sign of being burned by flames.

The moment they shook hands, Orochimaru didn't even have time to use the snake, but boundless heat came from his palms.

Li Ke held Orochimaru's palm tightly, and at the same time activated the fire element on his body, turned on the flame armor, and a billowing heat wave swept through his palm. The heat generated at that moment made Orochimaru almost not make drastic actions.

Recalling Li Ke's calm eyes at that time, it seemed to be saying that he really wanted to roast the snake Orochimaru alive.

Orochimaru retracted his palm and rubbed it twice, a hint of unknown severity flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, he finally understood why Namikaze Minato and Uchiha Shisui, two geniuses, fell into the hands of Li Ke. It was probably not just luck that Li Ke could beat them.

Danzo next to him was speechless when he saw this scene. He had never seen anyone who could hold the flame chakra in his hand and keep it burning.

"What kind of special blood inheritance limit is it?"

There was some speculation in Danzo's mind.

But it doesn't make much sense to guess these things now, after all, Kumogakure's people have gone far.

Danzo slowly turned around and said, "We already have manpower over at Moon Country. If there is anything unusual about this kid, our base will get the information as soon as possible."

It is a bit difficult to penetrate Kumogakure Village, but it is still easy to arrange some spies in the countries around Kumogakure.

This is enough for this diplomatic trip, so Danzo is not prepared to stay in this place any longer.

Watching Danzo leave, Orochimaru rubbed his palms vigorously, still feeling the pain of burning. He took a deep look at the direction Li Xuantian left, said no more, and followed Danzo back.

The prisoners of Konoha were released smoothly, and soon there were some changes in the battle lines between Konoha and Kumogakure.

Under orders from superiors, Konoha's defense line shrank partially.

This move has a different political signal in the eyes of the entire ninja world.

Is Konoha preparing for a truce with Kumogakure?

It may be possible, but neither Konoha nor Kumogakure has yet entered the implementation stage.

Other countries are considering another factor. Where did the shrinking defense personnel of Konoha go?

It is Iwagakure Village that should think deeply about this issue.

Because Earth Country is also adjacent to Konoha.
