Naruto's Shulker Snake

id"3212158">

"Naruto: Latent Shadow Snake."

Ye Long is planning an alliance with Danzo and Hanzo's Rain Nation, while on the other side, after traveling all the way, Orochimaru, Tsunade and the others have arrived at the Hidden Leaf Village of the Country of Fire.

Probably because the desire to awaken Mudun was too strong, the group arrived two days earlier than planned.

"Welcome the heroes of Konoha back"

"Konoha Sannin"

As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the village, I saw a group of people gathered at the entrance of Konoha Village from a distance, with excited and bright smiles on their faces. Some of them were holding simple signs in their hands. As soon as they saw a few people, they burst into cheers.

Just looking at it, the welcoming crowd was only a few hundred people, which was really not proportional to the actual population of Konoha Village, which was hundreds of thousands.

And in Orochimaru's eyes, those cheering crowds looked like they had been rehearsed, and their smiles looked fake and stiff.

"..."

If Jiraiya were here, he would probably be shouting and cheering with pride, but at this moment, Naoki was the only one who couldn't contain his excitement.

Tsunade may be carefree around people she knows, but she's also quite reserved in public.

"I'm back, teacher. I didn't expect you to greet us in person."

Orochimaru looked at these guys, who were mostly civilians and civilian ninjas, with an expressionless expression, and even sneered a little mockingly. He just greeted Sarutobi Hiruzen respectfully, standing in the center of the crowd, wearing a god robe and holding a pipe in his mouth.

"Haha, it'll be nice to come back. Thank you for your hard work." Sarutobi smiled lightly, but it was also a little reluctant.

Sarutobi was obviously not happy about this crude welcome ceremony. It can be said that Orochimaru and the other three made great achievements in this war. However, as Hokage, their teacher was unable to obtain corresponding rights and honors for them.

Even with such a shabby welcome ceremony, Hiruzen Sarutobi actually had to say a few cruel words to get it, and at this time, Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't explain all of this.

Needless to say, this was the suppression of him and the Sannin by Danzo and the group of elders. In particular, Koharu and Mito Kaden, who were transferred to another dormitory, forced Ye Long to take over the direct troops that had been with the Sannin through life and death. The euphemistic reason was that they would not let the Sannin take credit and be proud of themselves, and give greater glory to the real hero Danzo. , which is also the main reason why the welcome ceremony is so shabby at this time.

This is another silent and equally dangerous political battle, but he, the Hokage, has to compromise.

"The matter in the Land of Rain is at its last minute, so..." Looking at Orochimaru's calm eyes, Sarutobi felt even more panicked, and couldn't help but explain.

"It's okay, teacher, we don't care about this, and everyone is tired." Orochimaru chuckled.

Unexpectedly, with the rise of Danzo, Sarutobi would become even more powerless.

"Uncle Sarutobi" Naoki didn't realize the somewhat stiff atmosphere and happily threw himself into Sarutobi's arms.

"Ha, the Rope Tree is back too."

Seeing the rope tree, Sarutobi's face brightened slightly, and he immediately asked: "By the way, where is Jiraiya?"

"He, he has something to do and he won't be able to come back for the time being." Orochimaru explained simply.

"Hmph, making decisions on such an important matter privately is really unorganized and undisciplined."

"Forget it, maybe you're just having a bad temper. Don't worry, young people have their own ideas."

The voices of the two old gods suddenly sounded. Especially at this time, Sarutobi's face suddenly darkened.

Tsunade heard this condescending tone and snorted coldly, staring at the small group of people who appeared behind Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Koharu and Men Yan walked hand in hand, followed by several representatives of the Konoha family. These people said hello to Orochimaru and others without saying much.

"Shengshu, you're back, you're really fooling around."

A middle-aged ninja led a group of people to rush to the rope tree one after another, and gently stroked it excitedly, as if looking at a rare treasure.

"Third uncle, you are here too"

"Of course, we have been waiting for such an important thing for how long Master Shengshu is coming back." The clothes of several of them had the emblem of the Thousand Hands clan engraved on them, and their attitude toward Shengshu was even flattering.

"Shengshu, I heard that you have also awakened the Wood Release. If you have a chance, let your sister see it too."

A beautiful woman in a green shirt appeared unexpectedly, touched his broken hair with a small smile, her bright eyes flickered, and she quietly glanced at Tsunade, who was frowning.

She is actually Ye Long Zengjin's ANBU teammate, codenamed Nightingale, and she has awakened the Wood Release's Senju Yueying.

"That's enough, Third Uncle, I will protect the Rope Tree, so don't worry about it."

At this moment, Tsunade couldn't bear it any longer, and angrily stood in front of Naoki, while giving Tsuki Sakura a cold look.

The reason why these people care so much about the rope tree and appear to be so attentive is undoubtedly because they want to use the identity of the rope tree's first-generation grandson and the natural awakening of wood escape to build momentum, so that the Senju clan can rise again in Konoha and gain more for themselves. real interests and powers

However, at this time, the Senju clan really held power, and the person with the highest status was young Tsunade. She felt extremely disgusted with the thoughts of these Senju clan members.

He worked hard on the battlefield, including the rope tree, in order to support the entire family through his own efforts. However, these people actually want to rely on the young Rope Tree to get something for nothing, and even ignore her, the person with the most say in the Thousand Hands Clan, which is really heartbreaking.

The once glorious family gradually withered, and even the remaining clan members seemed so unfamiliar. In this regard, Tsunade couldn't help but feel disappointed and deeply helpless.

"Uh...Tsunade, you..."

Several Senju clan members were suddenly at a loss and slightly annoyed, while Senju Yueying lowered her head and suppressed the expression on her face.

"Ah."

Koharu and Men Yan just looked at Tsunade and the others indifferently this time and did not interrupt, as if they were watching a big show.

Sarutobi Hiruzen opened his mouth. The Senju clan's status was too special. As the Hokage, he didn't know what to say for a moment.

"It's okay Tsunade, relax."

Just when the atmosphere was about to completely freeze, a pale and strong hand patted Tsunade's shoulder. Tsunade was slightly startled, and then her tense body suddenly relaxed.

"Thank you, Orochimaru."

Looking at Orochimaru's enchanting snake eyes and pale face, Tsunade suddenly felt that she had some support and enough confidence, and her mood gradually stabilized.

"Don't take advantage of the rope tree and involve him in your fight. He is the real hope for the future of our Thousand Hands clan.

As long as I also awaken Mu Dun, I will shut you all up."

Tsunade roared silently in her heart and pulled the rope tree to protect him behind her.

"Okay, after a few days this war will be over, Danzo will bring everyone back, I will collectively commend you heroes, and you will all get the treatment and glory you deserve."

Seeing this, Sarutobi breathed a sigh of relief, called over a few ANBU ninjas, gave a few orders, and finally waved to everyone.

"It's okay, let's all leave first."
