Naruto: Rebirth of Naruto, starts with Kotoamatsukami

"Orochimaru! Why are you running out here so late at night instead of sleeping?"

Jiraiya walked over and looked at Orochimaru and asked.

Orochimaru smiled slightly, then looked at Jiraiya and asked, "Did the old man come to you to reminisce about the past?"

Jiraiya hummed, then pointed at Orochimaru and complained: "You guy, you followed us! Really, you saw us, why don't you come out and let's talk together!"

Orochimaru smiled slightly and said nothing.

Jiraiya came close to Orochimaru, grinned and said, "What's wrong? Are you afraid that the old man will scold you? Don't worry, the old man won't scold you. Although you killed the old man, the old man still forgives you in his heart. Moreover, the old man attributes your change to the fact that he did not guide you well and did not educate you well, which led you to go astray!"

At this point, Jiraiya pretended to be sad and said, "I really didn't expect that until now, the old man is still proud of you and thinks you are his most talented student. I don't believe it. Really, the old man is really blind!"

Jiraiya said this with a look of jealousy on his face, and it was obvious that he was saying, Orochimaru, go talk to the old man, he won't say anything to you, and the knot between you two needs to be untied!

Orochimaru smiled and said, "Hahaha, Jiraiya, I know what you want to say. I will have a good chat with him about the old man's affairs if I have a chance. You don't have to worry about that. I came here in the evening just to talk to you!"

Jiraiya hummed, looked at Orochimaru and asked, "What do you want to talk to me about?"

Orochimaru looked at Jiraiya and said, "Let's go, we can talk while we walk!"

Jiraiya complained, "The old man said I look like him, but you're actually the most like him. We both like to talk while walking!"

then.

Orochimaru took Jiraiya and walked towards the park.

On the way, Orochimaru looked at Jiraiya and said, "Jiraiya, I know that since I rebelled, you, like the old man, have taken part of the responsibility on yourself. Don't say the old man, you, too, have been blaming yourself for not stopping me in time!"

"Even when the old man died in my hands, you also regretted why you didn't stay in the village, right?"

Jiraiya remained silent, as if he agreed with Orochimaru's statement.

Orochimaru continued, "In fact, I have always understood that you have always treated me as a close friend. You are also very curious about why the brothers who played together and grew up together ended up like this!"

Hearing Orochimaru say this, Jiraiya looked at Orochimaru and asked, "Yes, Orochimaru, you said you like science and you like to research and invent ninjutsu. I understand that the Second Generation is a master of ninjutsu development, but your abnormal behavior and attitude towards the village make me feel very uncomfortable!"

Orochimaru smiled and said, "I understand! You and Tsunade, like the old man and many people in the village, regard the village as something more important than life, but I am different. I realize the fragility of life, especially when Tsunade's brother Nawaki died in front of me. I felt that life is too fragile and it passed by in a flash!"

"I don't want to live like this, but I hope I can keep living, because as long as I'm alive, I can always find something interesting!"

"So, I started my research. During the research, I did take some detours, which led to some weird things. I'm sorry about that!"

Speaking of this, Orochimaru himself laughed.

"Later, I met Naruto. Naruto is a very remarkable person. Jiraiya, you have a good apprentice. Naruto taught me a truth. There are too many truths in this world, and you can't pursue them all!"

“There are too many truths in nature, life is too short, and the cost of creating wind is too high, so why not take advantage of the wind and enjoy the pleasure of drifting with it!”

Orochimaru smiled at Jiraiya and said, "For me, Naruto showed me at that time that he was the power of the wind, so I chose to ride on his wind and enjoy the fun of the wind!"

Jiraiya looked at Orochimaru and asked, "How's it going? Fun riding the wind!"

Orochimaru smiled and said, "Very wonderful!"

Jiraiya laughed and said, "It seems that Naruto's return has indeed changed a lot of things!"

Orochimaru also laughed and said, "A lot has indeed changed!"

Jiraiya said with emotion: "You, me, and Tsunade are all the past. The three ninjas of the new era have appeared. Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura, the three of them are the top forces of Konoha in the future!"

Orochimaru thought for a moment and said, "Sakura is just a little bit short in strength. At most, she has Tsunade's super strength, but her physical fitness is far worse. After all, Tsunade is the granddaughter of the first generation!"

Jiraiya nodded, this was true.

At Tsunade's current age, she can be someone's grandmother, but her skin is still moist, smooth and elastic!

Jiraiya discovered this when he had his first close contact with Tsunade!

Orochimaru continued, "Jiraiya, let me congratulate you in advance. As a close friend, you finally got your wish and married Tsunade!"

Jiraiya laughed and said, "That's right, you are the person who has witnessed the most of my psychological processes."

Orochimaru rolled his eyes at Jiraiya and said, "You idiot, I still remember that one night, you asked me to play the role of a robber and then go to intercept Tsunade. Then you came out and acted as a hero, saving Tsunade and making her admire me, right?"

"As a result, I was almost beaten half to death by Tsunade, really!"

Jiraiya seemed to have thought of that time as well, and suddenly he smiled very happily.

That’s right, at that time, Orochimaru was Jiraiya’s follower. He would do whatever Jiraiya asked him to do, and the two of them were very close.

Orochimaru continued to recall, "Also, you always asked me out. I thought we were going to do something or watch something shocking, but you ended up taking me to spy on girls taking a bath. I believed your lies!"

Jiraiya said with a smirk: "You just followed me!"

Orochimaru rolled his eyes and said, "I went back, but I didn't watch it well. You were lying there alone, watching non-stop!"

Jiraiya nodded in remembrance, and then said with a look of reminiscence: "It was so good back then. I could peek at girls bathing everywhere. It was such a wonderful time. Unfortunately, after growing up, due to my status, I rarely have such opportunities anymore!"

Orochimaru patted Jiraiya on the shoulder and said, "After you marry Tsunade, don't think about these things. Be a good man and protect Tsunade!"

The two walked to the center of the park, where there was an artificial lake.

Orochimaru looked at the lake and said, "Jiraiya, life is unpredictable. In the blink of an eye, you are going to marry Tsunade. To be honest, I feel a little melancholy!"

Jiraiya rolled his eyes at Orochimaru and complained, "Orochimaru, can you please stop being like this? You're becoming more and more like me!"

Orochimaru tilted his head and looked at Jiraiya carefully. He remembered Naruto said that in his previous life, Jiraiya died at the hands of Nagato. After the Ninja War, he understood some things in the past and became less and less like the old Orochimaru, but more and more like Jiraiya.

Yes, the more a person hates something, the more he lives like it later.

Orochimaru couldn't help but think of the past, and the lonely and rebellious self he once was.

He had always hated Jiraiya, hated his nagging, hated his lust, and hated the way he always lectured him in the tone of an older brother.

He even wanted to kill Jiraiya once, but every time he was either stopped by Tsunade or he cleverly dodged it.

However, with Naruto's rebirth and return, after a series of events, Orochimaru found himself slowly becoming the same as Jiraiya.

He began to care about the interests of the village, began to fight to protect the village, and began to become less selfish and indifferent.

He began to understand Jiraiya's thoughts and began to agree with his ideas.

Jiraiya once said to Orochimaru: "We are ninjas, we must fight to protect the village."

This sentence has been deeply imprinted in Orochimaru's heart, and it was not until now that he truly understood the meaning of this sentence.

Orochimaru sighed, remembering how lonely and confused he once was.

He knew that Jiraiya was also a lonely ninja in his previous life, but he found his own way and became a great ninja.

Orochimaru knew that he must find his own path and become a true ninja.

"Orochimaru, let's go have a drink together."

Jiraiya suddenly spoke up while the two of them were silent.

Orochimaru raised his head and looked at Jiraiya, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Jiraiya smiled and said, "I know you don't like drinking, but I'm getting married tomorrow. How about you spend a bachelor party with me tonight!"

Orochimaru shrugged helplessly and said, "Okay!"

Jiraiya put his arm around Orochimaru's shoulders, raised his hand and said, "Let's go!"

They went to a bar and ordered a few bottles of wine.

Jiraiya picked up the wine glass and said, "Orochimaru, we haven't had a drink together for a long time. Today, we should have a good drink to celebrate our friendship."

Orochimaru looked at Jiraiya and felt touched.

He knew that Jiraiya had always been his friend, and even though they had had many disagreements and conflicts, their friendship had always been there.

He raised his glass and said, "Cheers, Jiraiya."

Jiraiya smiled and said, "Orochimaru, you are really becoming more and more like me."

Orochimaru smiled slightly, then raised his glass in silence.

Without further ado, it’s all in the wine. Silence and coldness are Orochimaru’s true character!

Orochimaru and Jiraiya were drinking and talking about things in the past. Their relationship became even deeper after this drinking session!
