Konoha's Destiny Twins

Qing Shui's straightforward response suddenly silenced Orochimaru.

Obviously this kind of blatant poaching touched Orochimaru at a certain point.

After all, Kei is a disciple of Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas. If Qingshui wants someone, Orochimaru will let him go?

Hmm... given his relationship with Orochimaru...

It doesn’t seem impossible?

Qing Shui immediately waited for Orochimaru's answer with slightly expectant eyes.

Come on, it's time to test your feelings!

"Why did April-Jun think of this now? Is there any reason?"

Qingshui had already prepared for this: "Recently, the leader of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Fugaku, has been transferring ninjas from the Uchiha clan from various departments in Konoha back to the Konoha guard force."

"Oh? It looks like the Uchiha clan is making some big move?"

"About this... I asked the Fugaku clan leader, and he said that because too much power was lost in the war against Iwagakure, there is an urgent need to replenish the security force."

"Just like Uchiha Obito, he left the Minato class not long ago and went to the Uchiha Guards."

"So Yuki-kun is acting as Fugaku's lobbyist this time." Orochimaru smiled half-heartedly, "I didn't expect Yuki-kun to be so helpful."

Shimizu was quite prepared for Orochimaru's suspicion. After all, he was a very suspicious character in the past. It would be a problem if he believed Orochimaru with just a few words: "Anyway, Fugaku was once Shisui's teacher, and I'm very suspicious of him." Shuiya has a good impression... With this kind of relationship, the Fugaku clan leader personally asked me for help... I can't refuse."

"I see……"

Seeing that Orochimaru still had no intention of relenting, he continued to add, "I won't take advantage of you in vain... I can give you an extra portion of Hero's Water."

"If there are any results in the future, this portion of the heroic water can be used by you."

"I originally wanted to wait until my research is over before teaching them something... Since such changes have happened to Uchiha, I will agree." Orochimaru finally nodded, but it didn't look like the other party believed Qingshui. rhetoric, but because of that heroic water that belongs to him alone.

"Okay." Qingshui suddenly asked before leaving, "Did you gain anything from going to Longyin Village?"

Orochimaru shook his head slightly regretfully.

"I thought the seriously injured Nanao would be easy for you to capture..."

Orochimaru was silent for a while before saying: "There are very powerful ninjas in Takigakure Village."

"Isn't it said that Hero's Water can increase chakra ten times? Even if an ordinary jounin gains ten times the power..."

Orochimaru shook his head slowly: "It's not that kind of rough power, it's a real strong man."

The real strong man? Even Orochimaru recognized it as powerful? !

Is there such a person in Takigakure Village? !

Then why didn’t you hear about it during the last mission to Takigakure Village?

Suddenly, the flashing shadow appeared in Qing Shui's mind...

Orochimaru won't lose, right?

Qing Shui was a little unbelievable.

The strength that can make Orochimaru retreat in spite of difficulties must be Kage level strength.

Maybe even stronger!

"The person spotted me ahead of time and warned me not to go any further."

With Orochimaru's temper, he probably wouldn't pay attention to such a feeble request, so Qingshui asked curiously: "And you guys had a fight?"

"...He can use wood escape." Orochimaru recalled the original situation carefully, "And he also wore a white whirlpool mask on his head..."

Qing Shui's heart was like a thunderbolt from the clear sky.

I wipe it!

It’s actually Ah Fei! !

Was he the one who spied on him stealing the Hero's Water last time? !

So Madara, this old immortal, is also in Takigakure Village? !

"Are you surprised in April?"

"... Of course, when I went to Takigakure Village before, there was no such a number one figure, but you said that a ninja with wood escape suddenly appeared to stop you from snatching the Nanao..."

"I was shocked at first...but I still wanted to try Mu Dun's strength."

Yes, Orochimaru is not the kind of person who just hears the name of Wood Release.

Just a small character with weak legs.

It is inevitable to test the opponent's strength in a frontal wave.

"But at the same time, I also remembered that there was once a ninja who wore a white whirlpool mask and could use wood escape, and annihilated an entire ANBU brigade led by Minato..."

"With this kind of record, there is no doubt about our strength..."

"So I didn't choose to take action rashly."

Qingshui felt a little regretful that the two of them did not fight. He only heard him sigh: "He is really brave enough. He is not afraid that you will come back and tell Konoha Takiyin Village about the situation."

"The other party knows Konoha very well and also knows the purpose of my going to Takigakure Village." Orochimaru seemed to feel a little aggrieved. He had no confidence in fighting alone, and he couldn't come back to report to Konoha...

When we get to the bottom of this matter, no matter what the origin of Mu Dun is... he had the motive to have an attempt on Nanao in the first place, and this is enough to affect the friendly relations between the two countries.

So this is a very serious diplomatic incident!

"That's why you are so confident." Orochimaru sighed.

Compared to Orochimaru's helplessness and frustration, Qing Shui's mind immediately became more active.

After knowing the whereabouts of Fei and Madara, his first reaction was to immediately tell Jiraiya and the Sandaime Hokage, and then lead a large team to annihilate those two people.

What about just the source of the information?

Discovered by accident? Is there a hidden informant? Or just tell the truth?

Tell the top management of Konoha that he has had private contact with Orochimaru countless times? !

This is so sensitive!

If you don't do this well, you will be interrogated by the Criminal Investigation Team.

You must know that Qing Shui's memory cannot withstand exploration!

So until a perfect reason is found, this matter really needs to be suppressed.

But... Orochimaru didn't tell anyone, so why did he tell him?

"But fortunately, Yue Yue-kun's strength has grown to a level comparable to that of our Sannin."

"So I would like to ask Mr. April to do me another favor..."

I go!

Qing Shui immediately realized that Orochimaru had asked him to be a thug!

No wonder he agreed to let Hui go home!

"When it's clear, we'll go on another mission to Takigakure... just you and me."

"...Okay." Qing Shui agreed bravely, and then he teased, "It seems that you are quite obsessed with the Jinchuuriki.

"The subject of Jinchuuriki has always been my wish, and this kind of material is hard to come by."

"It just so happens that Nanao is weak..." Orochimaru snorted coldly, "I don't want to miss this opportunity."

"I understand you..." Qing Shui said with some emotion.

"Here is the advance payment." Orochimaru suddenly threw a page of paper to Qingshui.

It turns out to be one of the missing pages from the Nidaime Hokage's notes!

Illusion: The Art of Darkness!

It's a good thing...but it's a pity that he won't be able to use it for the time being.
