Chapter 109 Another Choice
Although Shiba Kiyokawa had never thought that he would meet Orochimaru here today.
But it is worth mentioning that he did have plans for Orochimaru.
His original idea for the problem Yahiko encountered was to use Orochimaru's research ability to solve it.
However, Orochimaru’s current identity is still Konoha’s frontline commander, and he may even be the squad leader of the Jonin Squad.
It is obviously not feasible to go directly to them to seek cooperation at this time.
There are only two possible ideas: either find a way to speed up Orochimaru's defection from Konoha, or try to let Orochimaru come into contact with White Zetsu's body tissue in advance and lure him to start research on his own.
As a result, Shiba Qinghe himself did not expect that, before he even started planning, a series of coincidences and accidents had actually given him the opportunity to achieve both goals at once!
At that moment, Orochimaru, who had just been forced back from Hiruzen by the Wood Release Tree Spear, was confused and raised his hand to take a ball of White Zetsu tissue thrown lightly by Shiba Kiyokawa.
This turn came so quickly that Orochimaru was caught off guard.
It was clear that they were fighting to the death just a second ago, and the wound on his chest was still bleeding.
But the next second, the opponent seemed to not care at all and threw the precious thing over.
"Qinghe-kun, what are you planning?"
Orochimaru only stopped temporarily, his brows furrowed, his eyes still fixed on Shiba Kiyokawa, his lower body always maintained the shape of a snake, ready to wag his tail and slip away at any time.
But this time, Shiba Qinghe was exceptionally frank and didn't hide anything, and continued to explain.
"White Zetsu is a creature with a completely different body structure from humans, and is naturally endowed with the ability of Wood Release and super strong self-regeneration capabilities.
They can also use chakra, and have the ability to regenerate limbs and almost become immortal. "
Having said this he deliberately stopped, looked up, and met Orochimaru's vertical pupils' gaze with a half-smile on his face.
This is a conspiracy!
Naked conspiracy!
At this moment, even though he knew that the other party had evil intentions and impure motives, Orochimaru was still involuntarily seduced by the word "immortality".
He couldn't help but turn his head and look at Beiliuhu again.
However, at this moment, his eyes clearly did not look like he was still thinking about how to rescue his old friend and take him away.
It was more like a subconscious assessment of whether the spores on Oyuru's body really had the characteristics that Shiba Kiyokawa described.
At this time, Hiruko also sensitively noticed that there was something wrong with Orochimaru's gaze!
On the other side, Shiba Kiyokawa, Kakuzu and Yekura took advantage of this conversation time to surround and bring Hiruko under control again.
Hiruko endured the pain, knelt in the water, raised his head, and looked at Orochimaru not far away with bloodshot eyes.
At this time, he finally stopped worrying about whether Tsunade had betrayed him, and instead cast a pleading look at Orochimaru.
"Orochimaru, stop talking about that nonsense. Research can be done anytime. Save me first! Save me!"
On one side were the expectant pleas from former teammates.
On one side, Shiba Kiyokawa's temptation was like the devil's whisper.
"I can give you as many of these White Zetsu organizations as you want. I also have a living individual sealed there. He has intelligence and looks like an ordinary person. He is a brand new life form full of unknowns.
So, Orochimaru, don't you want to understand the meaning of life? Don't you want to live forever? "
The choice is once again placed before Orochimaru!
Just like not long ago, he was forced to choose between Tsunade and Hiruzen.
This time, Shiba Kiyokawa gave him another opportunity to make a choice!
And every time he makes such a choice, he is actually constantly undermining his position as a Konoha ninja!
At this moment, Shiba Kiyokawa is very much like the Lich King, constantly creating painful choices for Prince Arthas. However, unlike Arthas, Orochimaru is not bound by boring justice and sense of mission at all.
There was not even a moment of mourning for what happened to Hiruzen. What spread across the battlefield next was Orochimaru's long-lost laughter.
Not long ago, the smile briefly disappeared from Orochimaru's face.
However, at this moment, even though Biruhu did not get it back and there was a deep knife wound on his chest that could be seen to the bone, Orochimaru unexpectedly started laughing again.
As if he had broken free of some shackles, he laughed wildly and evilly.
(Orochimaru laughing wildly)
"Hahaha, Qinghe-kun, you really gave me an interesting choice."
After saying this, he faced Shiba Kiyokawa and slowly retreated, his body gradually sinking into the water.
During the process, he finally said: "I will leave my sword and the sword with you. Before we meet next time, I hope you can keep the individual named White Zetsu safe for me. I will come to get it then."
After saying this, his figure completely disappeared under the water.
he's gone.
This departure also means completely giving up on Hiruko and Yakushi Nono.
Shiba Kiyokawa did not pursue.
But Biliuhu was completely desperate.
"Orochimaru! You bastard! You abandoned me just like Tsunade!!"
From his perspective, this was indeed the case. Except for Jiraiya, all the other three ninjas betrayed him today.
At this moment, after Orochimaru left, he had no choice facing the Akatsuki members who were further surrounding him.
Konan in the air spoke up, "It's your turn to make a choice. Will you be loyal to Konoha or become our prisoner?"
Hiruko first threw himself to the ground and picked up the Kusanagi sword that Orochimaru had dropped and failed to recover.
At that moment, Kakuzu and Konan immediately became alert and prepared for battle.
But the next moment, the development of things was beyond their expectations.
Beiliuhu then knelt on one knee, lowered his head, held the sword in both hands and raised it above his head.
"Then I have only one answer. I will be loyal to you!"
"..."
For a moment, Konan and Kakuzu were both stunned, as if they couldn't accept such a sudden turn of events.
Shiba Qinghe reacted the fastest. He walked forward with a chuckle and took the spoils presented to him by the other party.
But the next moment after he got the Kusanagi sword, he heard Beiluo murmur subconsciously, "I didn't expect that I would be betrayed three times."
Shiba Qinghe's hands were quicker than his brain. He subconsciously whipped out with his left hand, which was not holding the sword, and knocked Hiruhu so hard that he spun three times on the spot and fell headfirst into the water.
"Ouch, what are you doing!" Beilu stood up, covered his face and looked at Shiba Kiyokawa with a wronged look.
He clearly surrendered and pledged allegiance!
Shiba Qinghe shook his hand innocently and said, "Sorry, it was a reflex. I subconsciously pulled the slap away when I heard about the third betrayal."
“……”Bei Liuhu was always unhappy, but he didn’t dare to say a word.
I will present two chapters of my draft first, and the remaining five chapters will be updated within today. Please forgive me for having few chapters, mainly because I played Black Myth for several days before...
