Ch. 150. The real savior. [1]

Orochimaru emerged from the snake's mouth, covered in mucus.

　　Disgusting!

　　He stood on the ground, breathing in the fresh air.

　　The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, with an evil smile on his face:

- "The feeling of being alive is so fascinating!"

　　Orochimaru was resurrected, and Yakushi Kabuto's heart, which was as gray as ashes, became bright again.

　　The confusion on his face was wiped away.

　　Once upon a time, the pharmacist Nono Yakushi was his light and the proof that he was alive in the world.

　　But when the pharmacist Nono Yakushi died, he lost himself and became at a loss, not knowing why he was living in this world.

　　Later Orochimaru found him and he found himself again.

　　Orochimaru became the new light that illuminated his life.

　　But during the Chunin Exam, Orochimaru died, and Yakushi Kabuto lost his sight again.

　　Life has lost its meaning again!

　　But now, Orochimaru is resurrected.

　　Kabuto's world immediately became brighter.

　　Orochimaru:

- "Kabuto, thank you for your hard work!"

His voice was as hoarse as before.

　　Kabuto:

- "Orochimaru-Sama, I thought you..."

　　He once thought that Orochimaru was completely dead.

　　Orochimaru smiled and said:

- "I pursue eternal life and will not die easily."

　　Kabuto asked:

- "Is it a curse seal?"

　　Orochimaru nodded, but didn't explain much.

　　Everyone who possesses the curse seal is a prepared container for Orochimaru.

　　Even if Orochimaru is killed, he will not die completely. His will is contained in the curse seal, and he can be resurrected when he finds an opportunity.

　　No, as soon as Kimimaro died, Orochimaru immediately found an opportunity to resurrect from the curse seal.

　　No one knows how many people Orochimaru has planted curse seals on.

　　Even Kabuto Yakushi doesn't know.

　　The [Eight-Headed Serpent Technique] dispersed, and Orochimaru turned to look at Kimimaro who was losing the breath of life on the hospital bed:

- "Life is so fragile! It's alive one moment, but dead the next!"

　　His pursuit of eternal life became even more determined.

　　Kabuto said:

- "Orochimaru-Sama, why not use the [Summoning Technique: Reanimation] to resurrect Kimimaro? That can be regarded as a different kind of immortality."

　　Orochimaru shook his head:

- "Eternal life without flesh and blood means nothing."

- "Bury Kimimaro. In addition, you will be in charge of the Otogakure from now on. I will return to Konoha and succeed the Fifth Hokage."

　　Kabuto Yakushi frowned, he didn't understand:

- "Didn't he say he wanted to destroy Konoha? Why would he go back and inherit the position of Hokage?"

　　How did he know that Orochimaru's will had been changed by [Kotoamatsukami]?

　　Orochimaru asked with a smile:

- "Are you confused?"

　　Kabuto nodded.

　　Orochimaru explained:

- "Actually, my defection to Konoha was just a scene played by the old man."

　　Kabuto:

-"Acting?"

He didn't understand anymore.

　　Orochimaru nodded:

- "Actually!"

- "A long time ago, the old man noticed the Akatsuki and also knew that the leader of the Akatsuki has the [Rinnegan]."

- "In order to find out the details of the Akatsuki, we made a defection plan."

- "After I defected from Konoha, I successfully joined the Akatsuki and went undercover to investigate the intelligence of the Akatsuki."

- "Later, the leader of the Akatsuki, Pain, noticed my undercover behavior, and I had to leave the Akatsuki."

- "After leaving Akatsuki, I was supposed to return to Konoha. But the old man asked me to establish the Otogakure. He openly opposed Konoha, but in fact he wanted to unite Konoha secretly."

　　Kabuto Yakushi's eyes widened and he was shocked.

　　Sandaime, is he so wild?

　　Kabuto Yakushi swallowed:

- "What about the plan for the collapse of Konoha this time?"

　　Orochimaru nodded and said:

- "In recent years, Sunagakure has developed rapidly, so the old man and I discussed using the Chunin Exam to suppress Sunagakure."

- "The Konoha Crush Plan was originally designed to kill the Yondaime Kazekage."

- "Then Mizuki appeared and he had another target."

- "I didn't expect that Mizuki's strength was so strong. He forced the Yondaime Kazekage to join forces with us, but we still couldn't beat him."

　　Orochimaru's explanation was very reasonable.

　　It has to be said that the [Kotoamatsukami] are so powerful that Orochimaru's will and thinking were completely changed.

　　Completely brainwashed!

　　The reasons he said seemed to be true.

'The one who once brainwashed others has now been brainwashed himself. As they say: Karma'
