Snapped!
A large hand was placed on Orochimaru's shoulder without any sense of boundaries, and his messy white hair fell on it.
"Why don't you invite me in to sit down? This makes me feel really embarrassed."
……
Ignoring the bastard's antics, Orochimaru calmly took Jiraiya to his reception room.
"That's really your style, meticulous and rigorous. But it lacks any sense of life."
"I don't need any breath of life, I just need to be able to do my own things quietly."
After all, Orochimaru couldn't stand the noise of this white-haired idiot, so he spoke back in a neither soft nor harsh way. This guy always made his calm mood feel a little more troubled.
But this is probably one of the few ties I have in Konoha Village.
Jiraiya unconsciously spread his food on the tatami, saw the cold tea on the table, heated it with his chakra, and drank it without any hesitation.
At this time, Orochimaru looked at Jiraiya's palm and felt a little relieved.
"Your fire-attribute chakra is developing very quickly. It seems that war is really something that can make people progress."
When it comes to war, he is naturally silent, as he dislikes war very much. In pursuit of the illusory peace, he even goes looking for the even more illusory child of destiny.
It is incredible for a ninja to focus on such an uncertain thing.
Relying your future on others shows a lack of confidence in yourself.
Chapter 4: Orochimaru's Wisdom
He did not have the confidence to bring peace to the world with his own hands, which is also a kind of sadness for this hero.
His whole life was driven by fate, and finally he fell into the sea.
"Tell me, what do you want from me?"
Not sure if he was impatient or couldn't bear to see his friend feel lonely, but Orochimaru spoke up to ease the atmosphere.
"Ah, I just want to ask if you are willing to accompany me out of the village to relax? Anyway, the follow-up work in the village can be done by the elders, and the two of us can't help much in the village."
Orochimaru stared at Jiraiya with his snake eyes for a few minutes without moving. Seeing that Jiraiya was getting frightened all over, he still had to put on a smile.
"Tsk... Looks like even an idiot like you knows about this. Namikaze Minato is indeed a good boy."
Orochimaru felt warm inside. He knew what his good friend meant.
……
Jiraiya's tone stagnated, he felt very embarrassed about this matter. On one side was his good brother who had been through thick and thin with him, and on the other side was his most proud disciple.
He was very proud that Minato Namikaze could succeed as the Fourth Hokage.
It is not easy for Minato to get such an opportunity with his ability, talent and super high affinity, which shows that Jiraiya is really good at teaching apprentices and he can brag about it.
But it was obvious that before the Third Ninja World War or at the beginning, Orochimaru was the most popular candidate, and Jiraiya was even aware of some of the rumors in the village at that time.
How could such a rumor that could shake the morale of the Konoha army be so obvious without the tacit approval of the top leaders?
But in the early and middle stages, Hiruzen's idea suddenly changed, and Orochimaru's reputation in the village was artificially suppressed.
Then, with the appearance of golden flashes, the selection of the new Fourth Hokage fell to Minato Namikaze. Jiraiya didn't want to think about how many unknown things were involved.
Because it was destined to be full of power games and various considerations under the sun, but after the war, the time had come when it had to be faced.
Seeing his apprentice frequently gaining some high reputations and requests for communication from other ninja clans, Jiraiya understood that someone was working behind the scenes.
And only our own teacher can achieve this level and has such control over the village.
The visit of the Ino-Shika-Cho group made this trend become a reality, and the teacher also expressed the idea of stepping down as Hokage in the near future.
Then it would be awkward for Orochimaru to stay in the village.
So he came up with this stupid idea, which was to take his good friend to the ninja world to relax and avoid this scene.
After the war, all the major ninja villages were licking their wounds, but this did not stop him from taking his good friends with him to collect materials.
However, Orochimaru clearly rejected this proposal.
Who is he? He thinks he is the smartest cold king of Konoha, Orochimaru. With his pride, he would not choose this way of escape. Even if he stood in the audience and watched that brat ascend to the position of Hokage, what would it matter?
Now, Snake is only more interested in immortality and ninjutsu. The position of Hokage may be just a small regret that will always remain in his heart.
Seeing that his good friend rejected him as expected, Jiraiya could only laugh it off with a playful smile.
Forget it, just trust your good friend, there won’t be any trouble.
Since Orochimaru didn't want to leave, he wouldn't leave either. He would wait until his apprentice put on the divine robe and then leave Konoha Village to collect materials. He hoped that everything would be as beautiful as he had imagined.
"By the way, Orochimaru, what do you think of the Uchiha clan? Will they destroy the village?"
?
Jiraiya has always been relatively neutral towards the Uchiha clan, neither hating nor liking them.
But suddenly becoming concerned about the Uchiha clan aroused Orochimaru's curiosity.
“Haha, first of all, it’s normal for the Uchiha to destroy the village. You know how they’ve been living these years.
Secondly, what do you want to know about the Uchiha clan? Or are you interested in the Sharingan?"
"Hey, how do you know?"
"The Uchiha clan has very few interactions with you, and your style doesn't fit in with them. So the greater possibility is that the Sharingan is special."
A pair of snake eyes looked at the idiot in front of him with interest. After hesitating for a long time, he finally asked his question.
“Yes, it’s the Sharingan.
What I want to ask is, if an Uchiha with only one eye would suffer a big loss in combat power?
Or does having only one eye not affect the performance of the Uchiha clan?"
Orochimaru was silent for a moment and eliminated many options, and this idiot gave out a lot of information.
"This is an interesting question. Is it from the prophecy of Mount Myōboku?"
Jiraiya was horrified. Why was Orochimaru acting so weird?
Orochimaru, the descendant of Ryuji Cave, still knows that there is an old toad in Myoki Mountain.
The Sannin also knew that Jiraiya had received the prophecy, but they did not take it to heart.
Nothing so illusory as the experiments in his hands could help him grasp the future.
He did not ask for details about the other party's new prophecy, but was just interested in it.
"The pupil power of one eye will definitely decrease, so it is impossible for the combat power to increase, unless the person's own strength is already strong enough to break through the limit.
Even if the power displayed by the single-eyed Sharingan is unrivaled in the ninja world, only such an assumption can be made.
So your concern should be on the person who has the eyes, not on that Sharingan.
After all, the Sharingan can theoretically be transplanted, such as Kakashi."
At this point, Orochimaru pondered again. This prophecy must have put a lot of pressure on his friend. It must be very complicated to connect it with the destruction of Konoha, and this prophecy should not only be about Konoha.
Orochimaru, who had come into contact with the holy land, understood that these immortal beasts that were extraordinary in the ninja world were not that concerned about the development of mankind, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe the three immortals at the highest point as indifferent.
After all, their lifespans are long enough to have seen the entire history of the ninja world, and Konoha Village has only been established for about fifty years.
So the previous prophecy was that the Child of Destiny would save the world, then the corresponding prophecy should be that someone with a single Sharingan would destroy the world.
When his soul was not damaged, Orochimaru's talent was so strong that he was able to deduce the true prophecy based on just a few words.
No wonder he was the only monster who was able to grasp the secrets of the Six Paths through research in the later period.
At the same time, this inference shocked Jiraiya greatly. This guy is becoming more and more weird.
"The coordinates of the three holy places in the ninja world have always been very mysterious. The enemy who can break through the holy places is most likely someone from Konoha.
And it is very likely related to the three of us. Since it is in the future, it is very likely to be a disciple or something like that."
Chapter 5 The Direction of Prophecy
Gudong~~
After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, the fog was finally cleared by this guy.
Jiraiya suddenly realized that the one-eyed Uchiha, the future disciple of the Sannin, or someone related to him, narrowed the scope a lot.
So - Kakashi!
The hidden conspiracy behind Sakumo's death was enough to turn this little guy against Konoha, and he is fully equipped with the Sharingan, and he is also Minato's disciple.
But that's impossible. This guy is now hindered by his Sharingan and can't even perform many ninjutsu.
This child's achievements have been locked, but he is unwilling to give up Obito's last wish. He is a very twisted disciple.
Minato will not allow his disciples to fall into darkness, so keep watching.
What about Obito? That's even more impossible. He has been crushed under a huge rock and buried in the Land of Grass.
This is a difficult problem. It seems that we still need to pay attention to whether the three of them will accept a disciple from the Uchiha clan in the future?
The origin of today's questioning came from after the war, when he was urgently notified by the toad of Myoboku Mountain to return to the holy land.
After meeting the giant toad immortal, the immortal told him the second prophecy.
A mysterious man with only one Sharingan dragged the entire ninja world into war. The three holy places were breached, and all ninjas in the world were forced to unite to fight against the ultimate darkness.
The rumors about a child of destiny had already put him under heavy pressure, and now he had learned the true culprit who destroyed the world.
These two things weighed on Jiraiya's mind, making him very tired, and he finally turned to his smartest friend Orochimaru for help.
And Orochimaru also gave a very clear analysis and understood his focus.
"Since you asked so many questions, let me ask you a question too."
Suddenly Orochimaru took the initiative to ask Jiraiya a question, which surprised the idiot.
"Jiraiya, you have taught a few brats in the Rain Country before. Do you know anything about the Rain Country?"
The Land of Rain...
Jiraiya didn't understand his friend's intention in asking this question.
He would not talk about the Rinnegan. Although Jiraiya looked lustful and had many flaws, he was essentially a true ninja.
Knowing that the information about the Rinnegan could not be known by more than one person, he kept it a secret from his good friends and teachers.
Especially Orochimaru, his obsession with ninjutsu and blood has already revealed clues at this time.
How could one not study it if he had a pair of immortal eyes?
In order to protect his eldest disciple, he still did not say it, but simply talked about some characteristics of the Rain Country.
Unfortunately, Jiraiya didn't know that several people in the Rain Country already knew about Nagato's Samsara Eye. His progress in identifying the child of destiny was completely destroyed at the beginning.
Orochimaru nodded to show that he understood, this meaningless information was of no help.
"You are dismissed."
Jiraiya drank the last cup of tea and left quickly.
At the moment, Orochimaru seemed to be in a relatively stable mood. After putting aside the thing he was most worried about, he left, wanting to find a quiet place to hide for a while.
As a disciple of Sarutobi Hiruzen, if he gets a little closer to the center of power, he will encounter countless troubles. This is not the life he wants.
Orochimaru stood in the courtyard, feeling the surveillance from the Anbu all around, and sneered with disdain.
A cold aura emanated from his body, and he looked to the side like a reptile hunting.
The strong murderous aura brought by the war in his eyes, combined with the illusion, made the Anbu who saw him fall from the trees like wooden stakes.
"Go back and tell Danzo to stay down underground and don't try to show up. I'll go find him if there's anything."
The surveillance at the root is just ridiculous.
It's nothing more than a means for that old man Danzo to still express his presence during this period.
