----------------------------------------------------------------------

After a week of journey.

The team of Konoha's teachers and students.

Arrived at the destination.

The northern border of the country of fire.

Night fell.

Konoha's team set up camp on the spot.

"Fire Style·Great Fireball Technique!"

Yuki blew out a fist-sized fireball.

The wood pile is lit.

"Wow~ it's Fire Style!"

"Senior is so amazing!"

The students surrounded him.

There is another voice of worship.

"heh~ Is such a small fireball considered ninjutsu?"

Hayate Baro said sourly.

"Hayate, you don't understand that."

Uchiha Shisui explained with a smile: "My brother said that the biggest difficulty of ninjutsu is to control. It can be large or small, and it can be easily retracted, so it can be regarded as a complete master!"

"Patter!"

Kurenai thrust a wooden pole of the camp heavily into the ground.

The icy face exudes a severe aura.

"Hey! Boys, just come to help?"

"Wow~ The dread witch is here!"

The students gathered around Yuki were frightened immediately.

In the past few days.

Kurenai has been preventing the students from pestering Yuki.

She even used a small illusion technique to induce fear in their hearts.

So got the nickname of "Dread Witch".

"Don't stop me!"

Kurenai was so angry that she rolled up her sleeves.

I am planning to teach these little rascals in front of me!

For a time.

The field was full of joy.

At this time.

Yuki noticed it keenly.

As the leader of the team, Orochimaru left the camp quietly.

"Is it finally going to start?"

Yuki's eyes narrowed slightly.

He knew it.

A ninja like Orochimaru.

It is absolutely impossible to just take the child's task.

...

Outside the camp.

Somewhere in a dark corner.

"Wow~"

A figure dressed in Anbu costume walked out of the darkness.

"Are you here, Ryoma."

Orochimaru stared at the figure in front of him fixedly.

Aburame Ryoma.

A close friend of Shimura Danzō.

One of the core members of Root.

"This is an extremely secret mission from Lord Danzo."

Aburame Ryoma handed the opponent a pair of scrolls.

Orochimaru as a disciple of Third Hokage.

Should have been a close friend of Hokage.

Once he also had ideals.

Inherit the mantle of Sarutobi.

Become the next Hokage.

But he was smart.

Gradually, they realized the disparity between their master and apprentice.

Third Hokage is keen on power.

Unwilling to hand over Konoha's power.

Orochimaru is too powerful in terms of strength or fame.

He will replace Fourth Hokage, which may be difficult to control.

With Orochimaru's ambition, it is impossible to be willing to be a puppet Hokage.

Therefore, Third Hokage replaced the candidate as Jiraiya's disciple.

Namikaze Minato.

This powerless, innocent young ninja.

Support him on top.

Third Hokage can "listen to politics" and continue to control Konoha's power.

Orochimaru of this period.

Still have a fascination with Konoha.

Hope to become a new generation of Hokage.

Have a career.

to this end.

He now took the initiative to seek out another boss from Konoha's senior management.

Assistance from Shimura Danzō.

"S-level mission, sneak into Iwagakure's military base, steal intelligence..."

Orochimaru after watching the mission scroll.

Suddenly, a look of sorrow appeared on his face.

"So that's it.... They asked me to take the initiative to take up the task of taking the child, just to hide my eyes and ears?"

A group of Konoha teachers and students came to the border with great fanfare.

It will definitely attract the attention of Rock Shinobi next door.

at this time.

Orochimaru can go around behind the enemy to steal information without knowing it.

"and many more!"

"What's wrong? Are you scared? Orochimaru, one of the dignified Sannins."

"No...I have a question."

Orochimaru frowned slightly, "After I leave. What about the school kids?"

He is the only Jōnin in this team.

It is because of his existence.

Konoha's teachers and students dare to set foot on the border.

"It is enough to have a few Chūnin teachers in the school."

Aburame Ryoma said blankly.

Chūnin is weak!

This is not reliable at all!

Orochimaru just wanted to refute.

But immediately, he realized the truth of the matter.

"You want to use these little Students as bait?"

"Orochimaru.... Master Danzo is right, you are a smart person."

Aburame Ryoma did not deny the other party's statement.

"If Rock Shinobi takes the opportunity to strike, we will lost a lot of people."

Orochimaru said solemnly.

"Stealing important military intelligence can give Konoha an advantage in future wars!"

Aburame Ryoma said coldly.

"..."

Orochimaru fell silent.

"War, sacrifice is necessary. You should know this very well, Orochimaru."

Aburame Ryoma's dark words made him fall into an ice cave.

Orochimaru closed his eyes.

I recalled the second Ninja War I experienced in the past...

Tsunade's lover died in battle.

Nawaki died in battle.

Countless colleagues in the past have now become ash and bones.

This made him deeply realize the fragility of life.

This gave birth to research into the taboo field.

This is also the reason why he took the initiative to approach Shimura Danzō.

Only contempt for life.

Only then can take charge of life!

Orochimaru opened his eyes.

The golden pupils are no longer confused.

"I accept this task."
