Naruto: Kakashi is back with the system

Chapter 34 The True Meaning of Life: Cherish Time

Orochimaru firmly believed that his changes were closely related to these two little guys.

No, it cannot be said to be a change.

To be precise, it should be the reason why there is a difference between one's real trajectory and dreams.

Before he could continue thinking and reasoning further, a "gurgling" sound came from his abdomen, as if protesting against Orochimaru's neglect and abuse of him.

Once thoughts are interrupted, there is no way to continue.

Orochimaru rubbed his stomach with one hand, as if trying to soothe his internal organs.

After working hard for a long time, the bachelor living alone decided to find a restaurant in the village to enjoy a meal.

When he went out, he realized that the sun had already passed midday.

"It's already this late, no wonder you're so hungry."

After satisfying his own hunger, Orochimaru walked slowly along the forest path of Konoha.

He no longer walked in a hurry as when he left, but instead seemed to be walking leisurely.

Just then, a series of "ping pong" sounds attracted Orochimaru's attention.

Only then did he notice that he had lost his mind in this quiet and peaceful atmosphere without knowing when.

Looking around, he realized that he had unknowingly come to the vicinity of Training Ground No. 27.

If he remembered correctly, this training ground should have been allocated to Hatake Sakumo and became his exclusive training ground.

It's just that Hatake Sakumo seems to prefer staying in the Anbu training ground.

When he got closer and saw the people using the training ground, a look of understanding flashed in his eyes.

I don’t know if Kakashi was too devoted to training, or if Orochimaru was really as silent as a snake.

In short, Kakashi didn't seem to notice Orochimaru's approach and was still practicing sword swinging.

Orochimaru observed for a long time and found that Kakashi was training really hard, and he felt a little puzzled.

He didn't understand why Kakashi had such self-control.

Although if you want to become a strong person, you must have perseverance and self-control.

But there is no war now, Kakashi is only 5 years old, and children of his age have not yet graduated from the ninja school.

He really couldn't think of a reason why Kakashi would work so hard.

Orochimaru has never been a person who would deliberately put himself in a difficult position. Since he couldn't figure it out, he might as well just ask directly.

"Kakashi-kun has already started training so hard at such a young age. Do you want to become a hero of Konoha like Sakumo? Or do you want to become the Hokage?"

The sudden voice startled Kakashi and he couldn't help but reflect on it in his mind.

What happened to him? Why didn't he notice someone approaching? This wasn't the first time this had happened, was it?

Is it because I am too comfortable in Konoha?

If he were on the battlefield, he would have died countless times like this.

Then he realized what question he had just heard and looked up at the person who came.

He lowered his head and began to think again.

Seeing that Kakashi was obviously thinking, Orochimaru didn't rush him.

After all, the questions he asked were indeed too profound, so it was natural that he needed time to think.

"Neither. People who have witnessed death will be more afraid of death. Compared to becoming a hero, I hope to explore the true meaning of life. And this requires strong strength as support."

He has lived two lifetimes already. Although he has tons of company in his three lives, he still feels very lonely sometimes.

"Kakashi-kun is indeed not an ordinary child. He has such a profound understanding of life at such a young age."

"Because... I'm not a child anymore..."

He murmured softly, and although his voice was small, it floated into the ears of the big snake with the wind.

Orochimaru's pupils couldn't help but shrink.

Suddenly I felt that it would be such a pity if such an interesting person died one day.

"Kakashi-kun and I are destined to be together! Life is so fragile. If one day..."

Orochimaru thought that if Kakashi unfortunately died young, he would make his body into a specimen and preserve it forever.

But Kakashi didn't wait for him to finish his words.

"Lord Orochimaru, have you ever thought about immortality?"

Orochimaru's slightly regretful expression suddenly became serious, and his sharp eyes shot towards Kakashi like an arrow.

This was the unspoken wildness in his heart, he even had some preliminary ideas about how to achieve immortality.

Now that it has been pointed out so bluntly, how could he not want to kill to silence the witness?

"Master Orochimaru, have you ever heard of Xiuxian?"

"Six Paths Immortal?"

A trace of disdain flashed through Orochimaru's mind. The Six Paths Sage was indeed very powerful, but no matter how powerful he was, wasn't he dead now?

Kakashi added, seeming to notice Orochimaru's disapproval.

"No, he is an immortal who lives as long as the heaven and earth and shines as brightly as the sun and the moon."

Orochimaru suddenly found it a little funny at his own weird thoughts.

I actually talked about these things with a child.

The shameful thing is that I actually believed it at the beginning and was even a little moved.

But he, who was always calm and composed, quickly threw this outrageous idea out of his mind, chuckled twice, and left without knowing whether he could do anything.

But his steps were no longer as calm as before, but seemed a little anxious.

Kakashi lowered his head in disappointment.

This was the best solution he could think of.

The best defense is always offense.

Instead of trying to hide the differences between himself and Ton-Ton in front of Orochimaru who already knows some of the inside story, it would be better to make him one of his own.

He also sincerely hopes that Orochimaru can achieve immortality, because he thinks Orochimaru is the person with the greatest hope of immortality in the Naruto world.

In his first life, Orochimaru successfully researched the forbidden technique of reincarnation, and was even able to survive after having his hands sealed by the Third Hokage.

But as he reincarnated again and again, Orochimaru's soul seemed to become weaker.

The ability to resist illusions is also significantly weakened.

Kakashi sighed, put away his sword helplessly, and sat down cross-legged.

Having rarely experienced failure, he felt extremely frustrated and no longer had the mood to continue practicing swordsmanship.

Just meditate for a while and calm down.

The technique gradually started to work and the spiritual power was slowly accumulating.

Without the burden of the Sharingan, he had more than enough spiritual energy, and it would never be reduced to a unit of measurement of chakra like in his first life.

It’s just that spiritual power is the foundation of all Kakashi’s strength, so naturally the more the better.

On the other side, Orochimaru, who left in a hurry, was not as calm as he appeared to be.

The conversation with Kakashi just now left a mark in his heart after all.

There are too many secrets in this world. Even someone as powerful as the Six Paths Sage does not dare to say that he is omniscient and omnipotent.

Orochimaru's goal is to study all the ninjutsu in the world.

But for a limited life, time does not seem to be enough!
