Naruto: Changing Fate
Chapter 340 The Secret
Welcome! ?From the moment Orochimaru gave up on delving into the source of the intelligence, he continued to ask questions, trying to understand what Naruto said was the reason why he was more vigilant than the leader of the Akatsuki organization.Naruto knew that his plan could be considered successful for the most part.So much so that while I felt secretly relaxed, my confidence in the subsequent persuasion plan naturally increased accordingly.
"Well, let me think about it..."
Of course, even so, Naruto did not let go easily, and explained it to Orochimaru straightforwardly.On the contrary, under the foreshadowing of the previous words, he tried hard to suppress the smile in his heart and deliberately put on a sad face.While glancing sideways intentionally or unintentionally, he continued "talking to himself" word by word.
"If I tell this information, will I tell it to the S-class rebel ninja bad guys in the village, or will I tell it to the disciples of the Sandaime Hokage's grandfather..."
Obviously, if one goes by what Naruto said before... then, under the switching and comparison of these two "different" identities, the treatment that can be received is naturally very different.So much so that Naruto, who seemed to be talking to himself, invisibly asked Orochimaru a question that was neither serious nor light.
That is... Orochimaru, who is now asking Naruto, is he from the perspective of an S-class rebellious ninja who defected from the village, or is he the disciple who the Sandaime Hokage valued the most and loved in the past years?
It was precisely because of this that after Orochimaru paused for a moment, he immediately realized the pros and cons of this issue while his face was slightly stiff.
If he chooses the former, he can certainly preserve the cold and lonely image and face that Orochimaru has been trying to maintain from beginning to end... but the consequences will definitely prevent Naruto from leaking the village's confidential information to danger. He used the excuse of being a traitor and a bad guy, and was secretive in his explanation.Or even directly replace the truth behind it with false lies.So much so that Orochimaru, who was intrigued by Naruto, could not satisfy his curiosity and thirst for knowledge.
As for the latter...
Except that it is the complete opposite of the former, letting Orochimaru use his tsundere disguise in exchange for the truth to satisfy his curiosity.In a sense, more, it is equivalent to Naruto trying to let Orochimaru, who has not yet completely fallen into blackness, make a team choice in advance.
After all, just like when Hinata and Fugaku were joking and joking, they casually said their promise to marry Hinata to Naruto. Naruto, who turned back midway, recorded and preserved them all... Taste it Sweet Naruto, but he has a deep understanding of what a wise and necessary choice it is to carry a recording device with him at all times!
Because of this, the moment this rhetorical question came out of his mouth, he put his hands into his pockets.For a moment, Naruto, who looked lazy and casual, used the cover of his pocket to quietly turn on the recording device hidden in his pocket.And no matter what Orochimaru's next choice is, which one it is.For Naruto, who is very economical, this can definitely be regarded as a profitable business!
In other words, this is a blatant trap with almost no hidden intention.And based on Orochimaru's IQ and strategy, he can definitely easily identify it... But even so, Orochimaru had to bite the bullet and jump down with a look of helplessness.
Because, just as Naruto thought... Orochimaru today is just a high-ranking figure who longs for eternal life and despises the growing corruption of Konoha Ninja Village.But for Jiraiya, the Sandaime Hokage, and Tsunade, who have been with them since childhood and are like blood relatives, they still inevitably retain deep friendship and bonds.So much so that it can be compared with the Orochimaru in the original work who is so paranoid that he is almost crazy and can even kill his master without hesitation.Orochimaru, who has not yet completely darkened to the point of being hopeless, has a chance to get rid of his old fate, just like Naruto intervened in advance to save him and retained his innocence and kindness.
"Tsk, does this question have any meaning?"
Under the influence of this arrogant and upright attitude, Orochimaru had already lost his previous tough and cold aura when he heard Naruto's abrupt rhetorical question.Then, as if she was afraid that Naruto would see more flaws, she turned her head slightly with a guilty conscience, and missed Naruto's gaze.Then he paused for a moment, then responded softly and pointedly.
"In the bottom of your heart, little guy, you obviously already have the answer, don't you?"
"Hiss—! It sounds like this, why do I always feel that Uncle Snake has turned into a shy little daughter-in-law who is being teased? This must be my illusion, right?!"
After seeing Orochimaru's hinted reply that he was obviously relieved, Naruto suddenly got goosebumps all over his body under these friendly words that were completely opposite to Orochimaru's old image.The smile hidden in my heart grew stronger.Then he blinked his eyes and continued to respond with an innocent face. In order to stimulate Orochimaru, he answered the still unspeakable answer himself, thus fanning the flames again.
"Ah? The answer? What answer...well...I don't know at all~"
Well, of course...
This is all to record and preserve all the words Orochimaru said when he admitted it himself.Then, as a precautionary measure, he used it as a pre-prepared evidence bargaining chip to persuade Orochimaru to return to the Konoha Ninja Village at some point in the future...
It was definitely not because of Orochimaru's previous teasing and teasing that allowed Naruto to experience the exciting ups and downs of life from heaven to hell, and then from hell to heaven, which made Naruto find every way to repay Orochimaru's "favour". , and the special revenge taken deliberately... ahem, a means of repaying gratitude!
If you don't believe it, look at Naruto's little eyes... He is so innocent, such a pure and good boy -!How could it be possible to do such a vengeful thing?It doesn't exist at all!
"Huh? You brat..."
As if Naruto didn't understand, he asked the question unexpectedly and reluctantly, making Orochimaru's face look more stiff and embarrassed.Then, with Naruto taking the initiative, he clenched his fists slightly without speaking in anger.He rolled his eyes and gave up on wasting time and doing futile thoughts.He then continued speaking decisively and straightforwardly, as if he was breaking a jar.
"Of course I am asking you in the name of Orochimaru, the teacher's number one disciple and one of the Sannin of Konoha! You should be satisfied with this answer, right?!"
However, what was far beyond Orochimaru's expectation was...
In Orochimaru's original vision, in front of others, it should be quite shameful and unpleasant to admit the true and inconsistent thoughts that remain in the heart...
But until Orochimaru said the last syllable in his mouth without stopping, he was shocked to find that... although he did feel a little unhappy, more importantly, he faced his true heart and brought about The joyful and satisfying feeling of relief!
And this wonderful feeling has been felt since Orochimaru left Konoha Ninja Village - or in other words, because of the death of Senju Nawaki, Orochimaru's disciple, he made up his mind to research by any means possible, how to make this extreme... From the moment when a fragile life was transformed into a forbidden ninjutsu that was eternally sublimated and evolved, until now, I have never felt anything like it...
It is precisely because of this that Orochimaru was stunned for a moment, and then he found out that he couldn't laugh or cry...
Even Orochimaru's taboo human experiment has made considerable progress...
But in the final analysis, Orochimaru, who pursues eternal life and even transforms himself, is still just a human being who cannot give up his emotions...
"Hehe, satisfied, satisfied, so satisfied!"
At the same time, after getting the expected answer—or, in other words, a much more straightforward and decisive response than the awkward admission he expected—Naruto finally couldn't hold back the smile in his heart.So the moment he opened his mouth to respond, he was smiling like a profiteer who had succeeded in his scheme.Even his weird mouth habits were revealed subconsciously.Then he flipped the switch with satisfaction and recorded every word that Orochimaru said just now.While facing Orochimaru's dissatisfied glare, which was pretending to be sullen, he quickly suppressed his smile.Then he coughed a few times to calm down his overflowing smile, and then continued speaking word by word.
"Ahem... Well! Since he is the disciple of Grandpa Sandaime Hokage, then he must be able to tell about this matter..."
During the speech, taking advantage of Orochimaru's previous hesitation and the opportunity of brief silence and distraction, Naruto had more time to perfect the half-truth and half-false words in his heart.After calming down his mood, before Orochimaru could ask anything, he took the initiative to talk without hesitation, as if he had opened a chat box.
"Actually, the reason why Grandpa Sandaime Hokage thinks that Zetsu is the most worthy of guarding against in the Akatsuki organization is because of a very credible legend..."
"legend?"
Naruto accepted it as soon as he saw it, and took the initiative to answer questions and make choices just right. Even though Orochimaru was a little angry and unhappy, he didn't really care about anything with Naruto, a "kid".Then while calming down his mind, he tried to redeem his image as much as possible from his image of being cold and aloof.Under Naruto's straightforward words, almost as soon as Naruto finished speaking, he realized something.Then he raised his eyebrows slightly and continued to ask.
"This legend... should be the information that the teacher got from the Uchiha clan as you said before, right?"
"Yes, that's it...well...or, to be more precise, this is no longer a legend."
With a slight nod, Ben was trying to give Orochimaru some warning in this half-truth and half-lie.In order to allow Orochimaru to be as vigilant as possible against the bewitching influence of Zetsu—or rather, Black Zetsu, who is the third son of Princess Otsutsuki Kaguya.As a result, Naruto did not conceal anything about Orochimaru's inquiry.Then the smile on his face gradually faded, making his whole image look more serious and serious, and he continued speaking with a firm tone.
"After all, this is an ancient secret engraved on a stone slab that has been passed down from generation to generation by the Uchiha clan since ancient times! In other words, what is preserved on this stone slab is based on what happened in the past. Part of the true history, a rough record written down!”
Of course, at the same time...
Because what Naruto himself said was indeed not a lie in a sense - after all, this slate did exist in the Uchiha clan.The original recorded content is indeed a record of the real deeds that happened in the era of the Six Paths Immortal.However, as early as Uchiha Madara's era, these extremely precious contents had already been completely rewritten and destroyed under the silent tampering of Black Zetsu.This made Naruto appear confident and clear-minded when speaking and responding.Then, with Orochimaru's quiet identification and consideration, he quietly added a lot of extra points to the credibility of these words...
"Huh——? The secret of the ancient times? This is a bit interesting... I really didn't expect that Jue's appearance, which has no fighting ability, can actually be related to the history of the ancient times."
It was precisely because of this that Orochimaru narrowed his eyes and stared closely, still unable to detect the slightest guilt or flaw in Naruto's body. After that, he subconsciously trusted the words spoken by Naruto.But in terms of his words, he didn't know whether it was due to his usual caution or the residual arrogance in his heart, but his heart was different, as if he was mocking and sneering at Naruto, he raised his eyebrows and hummed in response.
"Why, you little guy, are you trying to tell me...that guy is actually an old monster that has been born in the world since ancient times and has been living to this day? That's what I heard. The funniest laugh I’ve ever had…”
However, Orochimaru subconsciously said less than half of the joking words that came to his lips.It was as if someone had strangled my throat, and I could no longer utter a single word...
Because, under his gaze...
Not only did Naruto not show any embarrassment at all because of his sarcastic remarks...
Instead, he acquiesced to Orochimaru's words, blinked his eyes, pretended to be harmless, and nodded slightly at Orochimaru...
"...Hey, you're just kidding, there's no way I'm really going to hit the mark..."
In this situation, Orochimaru, who suddenly realized the terrible truth, couldn't help but stiffen up again.While swallowing secretly, he twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, seeming to be telling Naruto, and continuing to murmur as if talking to himself.
"...Those words I just said...were they just casual words?!"
