Uchiha, draw your swords! Cut down Konoha!

Chapter 21

Orochimaru was silent.

He did not forget what he wanted to “correct” Wakaka before.

But after Wakaka spoke of his grand “dream” in the most “innocent” tone…

Orochimaru found that he didn’t know how to start.

Become the head of the Uchiha clan and protect the stability of Konoha.

This sounds normal, and perhaps it is the dream of every Uchiha boy.

But… lead the Konoha Guard to the Ninja World?

Formulate the laws of the Ninja World? Maintain the stability of the Ninja World?

Child, you may not know.

Your dream is actually no different from ruling the Ninja World.

And the “dream” of ruling the Ninja World is probably something that every village’s Kage has in mind.

And taking the Uchiha out of Konoha seems to mean betrayal?

To be milder, perhaps it can be said to be leaving the Ninja Village.

But those high-level people don’t think so, child…

What interests Orochimaru the most is Wakaka’s interpretation of the “Will of Fire”.

Those who violate the law shall be burned to ashes by the “Will of Fire”…

So this is what you meant when you shouted the Will of Fire before launching the ninjutsu?

“I have to say, your dream… is really surprising, Mr. Wakahiro.”

Orochimaru asked, “I’m curious, have you mentioned it to the chief of the Fugaku clan?”

Conquering the ninja world… Is this the child’s naive idea, or is it a reflection of the ambition of the young chief of the Fugaku clan?

Even if he did not clearly sense the teacher’s gaze.

Orochimaru, who has already designated himself as the fourth Hokage, is indeed acting with the thinking of the Hokage.

Indeed.

Compared with inheriting the Will of Fire from his teacher, he is more interested in inheriting the Hokage and having the highest authority in Konoha.

But this does not affect his ability to become a competent Kage…

“No.”

Wakaka looked at Orochimaru seriously, “I have always been in competition with Chief Fugaku, but his will of fire is much stronger than mine now.”

“I can’t reveal my ambition until I am sure to defeat him.”

“…” Orochimaru was choked.

He never expected such an answer.

Well, this answer is traceable, after all, this kid was just trying to “discuss each other” with Fugaku…

Orochimaru decided to change his way of thinking, otherwise he felt a little bit behind the kid’s brain circuit.

“Teacher Orochimaru, can you keep a secret for me?”

Wakaka suddenly said.

“……Of course.” Orochimaru responded after a brief hesitation, “I am very happy that you can tell your dream to the teacher.”

“As a teacher, of course I support your dream and will keep it secret for you… Mr. Wakaka, I am looking forward to the day when you become the head of the Uchiha clan.”

After all, this child is still young.

After recognizing the reality, the declaration of “dream” may also change.

As for the child’s misunderstanding of “Will of Fire”…

Orochimaru thinks that it seems not bad?

After all, the Will of Fire also needs warmth, doesn’t it?

“I feel relieved to hear that the teacher supports my dream.” Ruohuo said with a breath.

Orochimaru smiled back.

“Then please help me submit the application for the Chunin Examination.”

Orochimaru’s smile froze slightly…

“Chunin Examination?”

“Yes! Becoming a Chunin will make my Will of Fire stronger.”

“Huh?” Orochimaru was stunned. What did he hear?

Wakaka looked at his fist and said seriously,

“I have learned all the fire escape techniques of the Fugaku clan leader. If I get the fire will of the Chunin, I can challenge the Fugaku clan leader!”

“Don’t worry, teacher. I won’t let you down. As long as I can become a Chunin, I have a 20% chance of defeating the Fugaku clan leader!”

“…”

There was a long silence.

Orochimaru found that it was not easy to follow the child’s brain circuit.

Take the strange setting of the fire will…

So how did the Ohki Chunin teach?

“Wakaka-kun…” Orochimaru felt that it was necessary to correct the misunderstanding of Wakaka’s thinking, otherwise it might be troublesome to communicate.

“The fire will is a spirit and a heritage, not…”

“I know, teacher Orochimaru!”

Wakaka interrupted as if it was a matter of course,

“The fire will is the source of power for the Konoha ninjas. The stronger the fire will, the stronger the Konoha ninjas will become!”

“That’s true.”Orochimaru said patiently, “But the strength of the will of fire depends on the heart, it cannot be quantified, and it has nothing to do with whether you become a Chunin or not.”

Orochimaru said patiently, “Look, you just graduated from the Ninja School and received the ninja forehead protector. Are there any particularly obvious changes?”

“Of course!”

Wakaka raised his voice, “Teacher, I have clearly felt the changes, my will of fire has indeed become stronger!”

Orochimaru had a headache, “But…”

“Teacher, look!” Wakaka presented the facts and directly showed the two magatama.

“After I became a ninja, I clearly felt that the will of fire has improved a lot, even my eyes have become stronger!”

“…”

Looking at the two magatama in Wakaka’s eyes, Orochimaru suddenly felt a little… unconfident!

He remembered that Wakaka just had a single magatama Sharingan, which was in the stage of just opening his eyes!

How come he… evolved as soon as he put on the forehead protector?

Recalling that during the Wakaka exam, he used the wind jutsu he had “learned” to turn it into fire jutsu, something he hadn’t had time to explore yet…

‘Could this kid be right?’ Orochimaru suddenly had this thought in his mind.

Could it be that the “quantifiable will of fire” that Wakaka believed in really existed?

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly.

So what exactly is this unknown power?

Is it a bloodline limit other than the Uchiha Sharingan?

Or is it a special ability of the Sharingan?

If only I could study it carefully…

An inexplicable urge quietly grew in Orochimaru’s heart…

“Teacher…”

Wakaka’s voice, which had not yet been noticed, became weaker.

“If you think I can’t defeat the leader of the Fugaku clan, I can challenge him later.”

“But becoming a Chunin is the fastest way for me to obtain the will of fire now, so teacher…”
