Naruto: Everything can be copied

Watching Suna Ninja leave, it was already midnight when we returned to the camp.

Jiraiya was lying on the couch, but he was tossing and turning and couldn't fall asleep.

At first, he was thinking about the war situation, and slowly, he started thinking about war and peace.

Since he couldn't sleep, Jiraiya simply got up.

Sit down with your legs crossed, your hands forming a circle, your eyes closed, and your mind empty.

Slowly, my mind calmed down.

This is also a kind of cultivation, the cultivation of "heart".

Jiraiya was immersed in it with all his body and mind.

until...

"Crack."

Suddenly there was a slight noise, which seemed particularly abrupt in this silent midnight.

"Crack, crack."

The undisguised footsteps slowly approached Jiraiya's tent and finally stopped outside the tent.

Jiraiya listened carefully, and there was no sound in the entire camp except for the footsteps.

Even the ninjas on duty outside and patrolling inside the camp seemed to have disappeared.

The person coming must be a master of infiltration!

A smile appeared on Jiraiya's lips.

Slowly, a corner of the tent's curtain was lifted, and a hand slowly stretched out.

The skin of this hand is extremely pale, and the fingers appear to be very slender.

"Ha!" Jiraiya chuckled and said, "Orochimaru, what are you doing?!"

"Haha." The door curtain was opened, revealing a tall and slender ninja.

Long black hair, narrow golden pupils, purple eyeshadow painted to the wings of her nose, pale skin, and magatama-shaped earrings.

This look, combined with the pitch-black night, gave people a very eerie feeling.

The person coming was none other than Orochimaru.

Orochimaru entered the camp and sat cross-legged opposite Jiraiya.

Jiraiya stood up happily and took out a bottle of sake from the desk drawer.

He took out two cups and poured them into each cup.

"One bottle of Saito's sake in the village is worth a bottle here."

Jiraiya raised an eyebrow at Orochimaru.

Orochimaru chuckled, took the glass, and took a sip.

Sake entered his throat, Orochimaru tasted it carefully, and suddenly sighed:

"The Saito family...it's been a long time since the last time we three ninjas gathered there."

Orochimaru stuck out his tongue and licked the wine on his lips, his eyes full of nostalgia.

"Yes, I really miss that time." Jiraiya picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.

Not long after the last ninja war ended, Tsunade took Shizune from the Kato family and left the village. By calculation, it had been almost ten years.

I wonder when the next time the three ninjas will gather together.

"Well, we won't talk about that today." Jiraiya picked up the wine glass, filled it up, and touched Orochimaru lightly.

"Tell me, what's the point of coming here late at night?" Jiraiya said with a wink.

"I happened to be passing by here and came to see an old friend."

Orochimaru spoke, with a hoarse and magnetic voice that made people feel close to him involuntarily.

"You were beaten pretty badly, Jiraiya."

"If I knew you were beaten so badly, I would have walked faster on the road. Maybe I could help you."

Orochimaru smiled teasingly, licking the corners of his mouth with his tongue.

"Hi..." Jiraiya covered his forehead and sighed depressedly.

Jiraiya knew that he couldn't hide it from Orochimaru. With Orochimaru's level, this kind of information was not a secret to him.

I originally wanted to show off my authority in front of my old friends.

"Konoha is fighting on two sides now. Sunagakure's military strength is much higher than ours."

"Besides, Suna Ninja is going crazy today."

Speaking of the war, Jiraiya gradually became serious and told Orochimaru about the situation on the battlefield, including the incident of the Third Kazekage.

"In short, if Sunagakure retreats this time, he will definitely come back next time."

Finally, Jiraiya concluded seriously.

Orochimaru nodded in agreement and said:

"And the next time, they will all come out in full force under the guise of revenge for the Third Kazekage."

"yes..."

Thinking of facing more tenacious enemies later, Jiraiya became more and more troubled.

Konoha had to deal with Sunagakure and Iwagakure at the same time, which was a bit stressful.

"That's right." Jiraiya suddenly remembered the Iwagakure battlefield and asked, "Orochimaru, didn't you go back to the village to rest before?"

As he said that, he looked Orochimaru up and down and said:

"After the holiday, why are you here if you don't go back to the Land of Grass to stay well?"

Since the war between Konoha and Iwagakure, Orochimaru has been the commander on the front line of Grass Country.

"Haha." Orochimaru's signature laughter sounded, and he said: "In the past year, Iwagakure Village has been having a lot of trouble, but it's not as lively as yours."

"The village has assigned me a new task, so I will take some time to come to your place to take a look."

Jiraiya was a little curious after hearing this, what kind of mission requires Orochimaru to be dispatched personally?

But the ninja regulations were there, and Jiraiya could only ask slightly worriedly: "What about the Country of Grass?"

"To cope with the current small scene, with Misura Hazaki here and the strength of Kusakure Village, it should be enough."

Orochimaru said a little casually, taking a sip of wine, with contempt for Iwagakure in his tone.

By the way, he washed his face with his tongue, obviously looking forward to the new task.

Mimura Hazaki is also a veteran elite Jonin of Konoha, and he is also a figure who has experienced the Second Ninja War.

This time Konoha and Iwakaku went to war, Mimura Hazaki has been serving as Orochimaru's deputy.

After hearing Orochimaru's arrangement, Jiraiya gradually felt relieved, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

"By the way, Jiraiya, I heard that you have a genius who defeated Yakura at the age of 10?"

While Jiraiya was pouring the wine, Orochimaru suddenly asked, his tongue sizzling.

Jiraiya didn't think what he was thinking, he chuckled: "Yes, it's Umino Ikkaku's son, Umino Kakugi."

"You should have heard about it before. It was also his handiwork that killed the Blackwood Falcon more than a year ago."

"In this battle with Ye Cang, he also awakened the Blood Succession Limit."

Jiraiya was bragging about Kadaki to Orochimaru like they were having a normal conversation. The more Orochimaru listened, the brighter his eyes became.

He couldn't help but stick out his tongue and wash his face again.

Jiraiya seemed unaware, still talking about Kakugi's deeds, especially when he went to save Morino Hiki alone.

In Jiraiya's opinion, the most commendable thing about Kakumu is that he is willing to sacrifice himself for his companions.

"Wait a minute, Jiraiya."

Jiraiya was talking enthusiastically when he was suddenly interrupted by Orochimaru.

Orochimaru was seen looking at Jiraiya with burning eyes:

"Umino Tsunoki is still in the camp, right? How about you take me to meet him?"

Although it was a question, Orochimaru's tone revealed urgency.

"Uh..."

Jiraiya didn't expect Orochimaru to be so interested in Tsunoki all of a sudden, so he said a little embarrassed:

"Well, Umino Kazuoki was injured in the battle with Hagura before. He left the camp and returned to Konoha this morning."

Hearing this, Orochimaru's bright eyes dimmed slightly.

"Well, that's really a pity..."

"I originally heard that there was a genius who defeated Ye Cang, and he happened to receive a new mission. I thought I could meet him."
