Sunny and cheerful Konoha Genin

After a brief negotiation.

"Then you will stay here and protect this village."

Orochimaru touched Kimimaro's head, his eyes narrowed with a smile, just like a kind elder.

He was really satisfied.

He saw all of Kimimaro's abilities.

What satisfied Orochimaru the most was the child's mind. Because he had been in darkness for a long time and was trained as a combat weapon, he lacked basic understanding of the world.

Such a child is like a blank sheet of paper, plus Kimimaro's talent.

Although there is no way to bring it back to Konoha Village, it would be very useful if I could use it as a secret ninja outside!

Orochimaru seemed to have already seen Kimimaro helping him with the dirty work outside after he became Hokage!

If there are some things that are not convenient for the Hokage to deal with, it would be right to leave them to him. He has the ability and is loyal enough to himself. More importantly, he does not have those inexplicable will of fire and will of root.

Simply perfect!

But Kimimaro didn't look very happy, because this uncle who gave him a good impression was about to leave.

He also wanted to talk more with the other party and get to know him better.

"I'll come back to see you."

As if seeing his reluctance, Orochimaru smiled and touched his head, advising him like a kind elder: "Before that, I need you to help me with something, okay?"

"Ok!"

Kimimaro nodded, then said, "Of course, sir, you only need to tell me to do it. Your will is my will."

"No, no, no, I hope you can have your own will..."

Orochimaru shook his head repeatedly. He didn't need a tool. However, seeing Kimimaro's confused look, he stopped explaining and said something else: "Forget it. If you don't have your own ideas for the time being, you can just regard my will as yours."

"Ok!"

The confusion in Kimimaro's eyes disappeared, and turned into determination, and he even smiled.

He doesn't know yet what this means.

However, he had a vague feeling that his life trajectory would undergo a huge change from today.

The world also changed from gray to colorful.

"So, Lord Orochimaru, in which cave are you going to lock me up?"

Kimimaro asked with a happy look on his face.

He was used to being locked up in the cave, so if he was being held captive by Lord Orochimaru, it would still be acceptable!

???

Orochimaru suddenly felt that his three disciples, including his good friend Tsunade, were looking at him with confusion, puzzlement and shock.

Even with Orochimaru's skill in cultivating his Qi, he couldn't help but look stiff at this moment.

I'm not who you think I am!

I just like scientific research, I don’t have any interest in abusing people!

"Ahem, I won't lock you in a cave, and no one can lock you in a cave!"

He added solemnly: "Kimimaro, you must learn to live for yourself."

"But……"

"I order you not to enter the cave!"

"it is good!"

"..."

Looking at Kimimaro with an innocent smile on his face, Orochimaru just felt tired.

But fortunately, the problem here has finally been resolved.

He turned to look at his disciples: "Hongdou's injury has been healed, right? Then we can go back."

The time wasted here has exceeded his imagination. Orochimaru just wants to return to Konoha as soon as possible. Although he suffered a lot of losses in this war, he also gained a lot of experimental materials.

By studying these, perhaps we can comprehend the mysteries of life.

"Please wait a moment, I have something to say, Master Orochimaru!"

Ito Toru, who had just completed a quick treatment for Anko, quickly raised his hand.

"Hmm? Ito, do you have any questions?"

Orochimaru was quite tolerant towards his favorite disciple, so he planned to listen to what he had to say.

"Um...Kimimaro should be from the Kaguya clan, right? I remember it seemed to be a pretty big family."

"Yes, you mean..."

At first, Orochimaru thought that Ito Toru was worried that recruiting Kimimaro would cause trouble, so he had prepared words to persuade him.

However, what Ito Toru said next made him fall into deep thought...

"The elites of the Kaguya clan were basically all destroyed in this battle. Is it possible for Kimimaro to inherit the legacy of the Kaguya clan?"

Toru Ito carefully put forward his opinion.

"After all, such a large family guarding so much wealth is easy to be coveted by other ninja clans. Instead of this, it is better to let Kimimaro inherit legally."

Kimimaro didn't quite understand and was full of doubts, but he still turned his head and looked at Orochimaru curiously.

When he saw the smile gradually spreading and becoming more intense on Orochimaru's face, Kimimaro immediately realized that this was most likely a good thing.

After understanding this, he couldn't help but change his opinion of Ito Toru, and felt that this person didn't seem so annoying after all.

Although Toru Ito's methods in the previous battle were somewhat despicable and shameless, if you look at him as your companion, he is actually a very trustworthy and reliable person!

"Hehe... As expected of you, Ito-kun."

After thinking about it, Orochimaru felt that this was a perfect solution with only benefits and no disadvantages.

"Tsunade, please take them back next. Kimimaro and I will go to the Kaguya clan base."

He made a decision quickly.

It would be impossible for Kimimaro to go alone.

If I leave the team now, with Tsunade and Ito Toru in the team, even the weakest Red Bean can fight with Kimimaro for a few moves, so nothing serious should happen.

The wealth of the Kaguya clan, including the secret techniques they collected from years of battles, are very useful to Orochimaru!

If you miss it, you will regret it for the rest of your life!

"Hey, Orochimaru, that's near the territory of the Hidden Mist Village."

Tsunade felt a little uneasy, but she knew the character of her teammates, so she could only remind them: "Be sure to pay attention to safety."

"Don't worry, it's no problem."

Orochimaru sneered: "Go back and tell Duan, maybe we can start our previous research topic again!"

"Ok!"

Tsunade nodded, "I understand. If I get there before you, I'll tell Dan."

So the group of people split up and acted separately.

Toru Ito and the other two followed Tsunade and headed towards Konoha.

Orochimaru took Kimimaro and ran towards the Kaguya clan farther away!

"Tsunade-sama, what is the research topic of Orochimaru-sensei and Dan-sama?"

On the way, Toru Ito couldn't help but ask curiously.

Didn't he know that Orochimaru and Kato Dan had such a good relationship?
