Konoha: Who says that hunters can't play in the ninja world?

"There is actually another biggest advantage to doing this, which is that the immortal arts are self-cultivated and are not controlled by the three major holy places, nor will they have the defects and dangers of the three major holy places."

"Flaws and dangers have become even more terrifying unknowns, haven't they?" Orochimaru pointed out the shortcomings of self-cultivation of immortal arts.

"Lord Orochimaru is indeed a scientific research maniac, and his meticulous thinking in scientific research follows him everywhere. But danger often follows opportunity. Everything has two sides, with advantages and disadvantages. As long as you can accept it, it's fine, such as Lord Orochimaru's turning technique, isn't it?" From the beginning, the transaction between Kazama and Orochimaru has gradually turned into a discussion of scientific research theory, although it has always been Kazama who has been providing output, and Orochimaru is suspected of taking advantage of it. But the object of the free ride is Kazama, so sorry, you can make a small profit, and Kazama will never lose.

"That's right, danger often means opportunity. What Kazama-kun said is really thought-provoking. I admire Kazama-kun more and more. I wonder if you have ever thought about leaving your current organization and joining us. In your organization, you are just a small pawn and you don't know when you will be abandoned. Join us and you will get the opportunity to become a superior person." Orochimaru was attracted by Kazama's imagination and thought that Kazama was a person with great pursuits like him, so he began to win him over.

"Lord Orochimaru, do you know why my organization has been passed down for a long time but has not been exposed? Many people know the existence of the organization, but they have never spread the news of the organization. Even Orochimaru has not received the news."

"why?"

"Because of caution, and because the recruitment of each member will involve many aspects of assessment and selection, this time will last for several years or even more than ten years. Once joined and recognized by the organization, then the person who joins is one of us, and our own people will never be allowed to become cannon fodder or pawns of temptation." Fengjian spoke slowly, as if he was not the person involved.

"Oh~? Then this time, Kazama-kun..."

"I took the initiative to ask for it. As a new member of the organization, I have to make some contributions. Of course, I also consider myself. Immortal Arts is one of the ways for me to break the upper limit of my talent."

"It seems that today's deal is the result of Kazama-kun's careful consideration. I wonder if I am qualified to join."

"Don't probe me anymore, and don't keep asking about the organization. I've said enough. Finally, I'll give you a piece of news. You were once one of the candidates to be recruited. Unfortunately, you failed the assessment and were excluded."

"What? You tested me? When?" Orochimaru was shocked. This result was too shocking, and Orochimaru himself was completely unaware of it. As for whether Kazama was lying, this bird's head flashed by and did not get Orochimaru's attention.

"May I know why?"

“When you drop your identity as a human being.”

"What?" Orochimaru couldn't hide his shocked expression. Indeed, for the sake of eternal life, Orochimaru gave up too many things, friendship, love, identity, career, and even the concept of good and evil. Even he himself couldn't tell whether he was still a human being.

"You are a complete egoist who can abandon everything for yourself. When you indulge in it, you will abandon everything. When you wake up, you will fall into madness because of the previous abandonment. You have no so-called loyalty, faith, or even the basic concept of being a human being. You are actually a monster and too dangerous."

"Hehehehahaha, I didn't expect that your organization knows me better than I know myself." Orochimaru was trembling all over. For the first time, he felt a chill on his spine. The experience of being cut open and displayed to people bit by bit made Orochimaru, who was used to the darkness, feel at a loss.

"Okay, while you are still awake, our deal will continue." Without giving Orochimaru a chance to calm down, Kazama directly interrupted Orochimaru's mental twitching.

"Of course, I can take out the curse seal at any time. Do you need me to put it on you now?" As strong as Orochimaru is, his emotions come and go quickly, as long as he wants to.

"Of course not. Your curse contains a fragment of your soul. I don't want to be parasitized by you and become your backup rebirth pod. I will remove your soul fragment and add a switch to control the absorption of natural energy. This is the transaction price for the second piece of information."

"I didn't expect your organization even knew this. I am such a failure. All my back-up plans seem to be exposed in front of your organization. This makes me more and more curious. There is no problem in improving the curse seal, but I still want to ask, why let me improve it? Aren't you afraid that I may do something?" The smirk on Orochimaru's face and his pale skin made people feel creepy.

“First, you know the curse best, so you can improve it the fastest. There are naturally people in the organization who can improve the curse, but it takes time. I’m 15 years old now, and I don’t have much time. The earlier you come into contact with natural energy, the better. The body of an adult is basically fixed, and its adaptability to natural energy will become worse.

Secondly, the person you are in contact with is me, and the person you will contact in the future will also be me. This is the initial basis of trust. If this transaction fails, or something unexpected happens, then there will be no possibility of transactions between you and my organization. You may even do something bad to Lord Orochimaru because of the consequences of this transaction. Thirdly, Orochimaru may not have a good start, but judging from other transactions made by Orochimaru, except for the black-eating-black, most of them are fair. This can be regarded as a gamble I made. Immortal arts are really hard to refuse."

"I didn't expect that I'm not completely useless in Kazama-kun's heart. Well, after the curse seal is improved, we'll make another appointment. The time should be before everyone's exam."

"Amazing! There is only half a month left until the finals. Lord Orochimaru has improved the curse seal so quickly. He is indeed worthy of being Lord Orochimaru. I am waiting for your good news."

"Well, this meeting has lasted long enough, and it's time for us to end it. If we don't end it now, I don't care, but I'm afraid that Kazama-kun will be in big trouble. Well, see you later." Orochimaru slowly sank into the ground and used the earth escape technique to disappear into thin air.

Fengjian added another handful of firewood, making the bonfire burn brightly.

"Come out, or the soup will dry up and become inedible." Fengjian suddenly spoke.

A hunched, white-haired figure walked out of the tree house. His usually kind face had become gloomy and serious. It was none other than Kazama's grandfather, Maruboshi Kosuke.

"I didn't expect that the person you wanted to meet was Orochimaru, and you even made a deal with him. He is a traitor of Konoha and is very dangerous. You shouldn't have contact with him." The old man put his hands behind his back and slowly walked to the campfire and sat down.

"I know. Likewise, I also believe in the old man, so even if it is something like this, I never hide it from the old man. So, please believe me, I will never betray you. I will never do anything that is bad for Konoha."
