【From the Snake】Go back and come

When Jiraiya came back again, it was winter three years later.Konoha has just had its first snowfall, and it is still cold even when the sun comes out, and the last bit of dead branches and leaves swept by the cold winter wind are buried in the snow.

When I first arrived at Mount Miaomu, I still couldn't figure out the situation, and the prophecies of the Great Immortal were inexplicable, but after three years of practice in Mount Miaomu, Zilai also understood a lot, and his strength has also improved a lot.

During the period, I also asked Toad to report my situation to the third generation in time. Of course, when I came back this time, I also reported the letter to the third generation.

When approaching the entrance of the village, Zilai also saw a figure as cold as bamboo leaning against the door, his chest was stagnant, and the corners of his mouth were raised, so he couldn't help but quicken his pace.

"Orochimaru!"

"Welcome back, Jiraiya." Hearing Jiraiya's call, the corners of Orochimaru's mouth curled up in a beautiful arc.

"I'm back, Orochimaru." With a hearty smile, Zilai also ran to that person's side.

Walking side by side to the village, Jiraiya tilted his head and observed Dashemaru carefully.

The guy has longer and darker hair, and he's wearing the earrings I gave him.Have you lost weight, your face is much more defined than before, taller than before, but not as tall as me...

"Jiraiya, what are you looking at, is there something on my face?"

"No no haha, long time no see. How do you know I'm back?"

"The teacher notified us, but you actually only told the teacher."

"Hey, I want to give you a surprise~ Orochimaru, aren't you afraid of the cold? Why did you come out and wait for me?" Saying that, Jiraiya took off his coat and put it on Orochimaru.

Orochimaru looked up at Jiraiya, the winter light reflected on Jiraiya's smiling face was too dazzling.

The whole body is so warm, and the jacket on his body carries Jiraiya's body temperature.

Ahhh, the world is getting warmer.

In the Hokage room, Orochimaru also quietly looked at Jiraiya.

It has become taller, it was obviously about the same before.

How to say?It feels more stable than before.

In three years, what level have you progressed to? It is really worth looking forward to.

"Jiraiya, it's almost time for you to take the Jōnin audition exam, and Orochimaru Tsunade has passed."

"Too cunning teacher, you didn't tell me this kind of thing earlier."

"You bastard, I told you in advance that you will be impatient again. Just take this opportunity to test your three-year achievements."

"Yes yes~"

The two who walked out of the Hokage room aimlessly walked on the streets of Muye Village.

"Hey, Orochimaru, have you missed me in the past three years?" Ji Laiya asked the other party with a playful smile.

"Yes..." Orochimaru raised his head slightly to look at the sky, and the water vapor he exhaled turned into a cloud of white mist.

Such an answer made Zilai speechless.

Scratching his head, Ziraiya pulled Orochimaru and said, "Let's go, eat meatballs, I'm treating you!"

Of course, Zirai, whose strength is not the same as before, also successfully passed the Jonin assessment.

Perhaps the god of fate didn't want people to live too ordinary lives. In the blink of an eye, a few years later, wars broke out among the great powers that were fighting openly and secretly.

Later generations called it the Third Ninja World War.
