Chapter 45
Yakushi Kabuto quickly lowered his head and said softly: "I don't dare."
Kabuto Yakushi has been working as a spy among powerful people from all over the world for many years, and has a very thorough research on character and human nature.
Orochimaru's defeat to Itachi Uchiha may indeed be an unforgettable shame.
But with Orochimaru's character, if he really wanted to regain ground with Uchiha Itachi, he would never use the power of the Sharingan.
On this point, Yakushi Kabuto is still somewhat sure.
Orochimaru is a proud man. If he loses to the Sharingan, he will never use the power of the Sharingan to defeat his opponent.
So Yakushi Kabuto guessed that maybe the Sharingan has more secrets.
For example, the power Uchiha Itachi used when he defeated Orochimaru.
Orochimaru's ideal is to learn all the ninjutsu in the world, and for this he wants to live forever. While studying various forbidden techniques, Orochimaru is also looking for the truth about the ninja world.
For example: the legend about the Immortal of Six Paths.
In the legend of the Six Paths Sage, the names "Thousand Hands" and "Uchiha" are derived from the Six Paths Sage.
In fact, during the time he joined Akatsuki, Orochimaru had already seen the legendary Rinnegan Eye belonging to the Sage of Six Paths.
"Kabuto, you just need to do your own thing."
After saying this, Orochimaru slowly walked into the shadows of the woods and gradually disappeared into the darkness.
Yakushi Kabuto's eyes flashed under his glasses. His strength was not enough to allow him to be free, and he did not have as many research resources as Orochimaru.
If you want to know everything, the only way is to be completely loyal to Orochimaru.
"But... I also need to find a chance to test Sasuke!"
…
'boom! ’
Another group of ninjas were defeated, but unfortunately they only found one scroll.
It seemed that they had the same idea as Hinata's group, they wanted to block other teams near the tower.
It had been a day and night since they entered the Forest of Death. Hinata, Naruto, and Sasuke had defeated more than a dozen teams in a row.
Neji's group arrived at the tower right after Ya and the others. After hearing Hinata's request to treat her as a guest for a month, Neji agreed without even thinking about it.
Next, the only remaining ninja in Konoha at the same time was Ino Shikacho.
Stopping another group of ninjas, and seeing that they were wearing Konoha forehead protectors, Hinata asked, "How many scrolls have you grabbed?"
The three people across from them looked wary and said nothing.
Hinata took out a dozen scrolls and showed off: "I'm not trying to rob you. My name is Hinata Hinata, and you should have heard of my name. If you agree to treat us, Team 7, to a feast for a month , I will give you the scrolls you need."
One person asked: "Are you serious?"
Hinata pouted and said, "Do I need to lie to you?"
After saying that, Hinata took out a pen and paper and said with a very serious expression: "As long as you leave the receipt and put your fingerprints and signatures."
Thus, another team of Konoha ninja passed the second exam.
Hinata also received a month's worth of meals.
Hinata felt a little proud. After the exam, my name as Hinata Otsutsuki will be labeled as 'broad-minded and helpful'.
Which of these genin leading jounin would not give me Hinata Otsutsuki some face?
This is connections!
Naruto suddenly shouted: "Hinata, Sasuke, someone else is here."
Hinata turned around and saw that it was a grass ninja.
"Roll your eyes!"
Hinata frowned slightly, he was the only one nearby, and this grass ninja...
Damn it, it’s Orochimaru!
Hinata couldn't laugh anymore. Why did Orochimaru come back?
Orochimaru stuck out his tongue and licked his face, and said in a playful tone: "It seems that you have collected a lot of scrolls! I also happen to be missing one. In this case, let's use the scrolls as bets and have a life-and-death battle! "
Hinata imitated Orochimaru and stretched out her tongue to lick it in a circle. The short tongue was only enough to lick her lips.
Hinata asked like a curious baby: "How did you do it just now? That's it (Hinata licked her lips again), your tongue is so long!"
Orochimaru:"……"
Chapter 70 It’s indeed the naive Uncle Snake
Orochimaru's face stiffened for a moment, and he ignored Hinata, the idiot. He stuck out his tongue, rolled up the scroll, and stuffed the scroll into his mouth.
Orochimaru licked his lips and said with evil eyes: "Then let's start the battle for the scroll... I will go all out!"
Hinata's eyes twitched slightly. One of the legendary Sannin came to bully an elementary school student. Is this even justified?
"etc!"
Hinata yelled, pointed at Orochimaru with one finger, and yelled angrily: "Since it is a battle for the scroll, do you think we are going to have a civil or military fight?"
Orochimaru asked with slight interest: "Oh? How about literary combat? What about martial arts?"
Hinata said: "This is a martial arts fight! It means we all fight randomly, and whoever is still standing in the end will win."
"As for this literary fight... we use one ninjutsu and you figure out a way to break it, and then you use one ninjutsu and we break it."
"If you can't crack it, it's considered a failure!"
Orochimaru thought to himself: "Although ninjas have never had the term 'literary fight', with my strength, if I go all out, they really won't be able to hold on for long. And... this little girl from the Hyuga family... said Maybe there are some secrets.”
Orochimaru was already addicted to Ninjutsu. When he heard Hinata's method of "Bun Dou", he was slightly interested and said in a playful tone: "Then follow the rules of 'Bun Dou' you said!"
"good!"
Hinata pushed Naruto out and shouted: "Naruto, you come first!"
"Look at me!"
Naruto was also full of momentum, forming seals with his hands and shouting: "Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!"
Orochimaru was amused in his heart. Shadow clones could only deal with ordinary genin, but he was Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas!
They were indeed three innocent children.
'BOOM——'
In the woods, Naruto created a shadow clone and produced a large amount of smoke that filled all directions. Through the smoke, hundreds of Narutos could be vaguely seen, either standing or hanging upside down on the branches.
Hundreds of Narutos said something to each other in such a mess that no one could hear what he said.
Orochimaru thought to himself: "It's interesting, this guy has a lot of chakra!"
Orochimaru was about to say something when he saw hundreds of Narutos divided into groups of three and running away in all directions at high speed...
Hinata and Sasuke turned into Naruto's appearance, and together with Naruto's true form, mixed in with countless "Narutos", they flew towards the central tower.
Hinata and the others were already very close to the tower. After just a few steps, the tower appeared within their sight.
Looking back at Orochimaru's direction, Hinata sneered in her heart: "You are the only one of the three ninjas, and your name is quite loud. Didn't you get tricked by me?"
Sure enough, he is the innocent Uncle Snake.
Orochimaru:"……"
Orochimaru never thought that Hinata would run away.
Hinata has the strength of a Jonin and is definitely at the top of the food chain in this forest of death.
I never thought that Hinata would be so shameless, just run away, and even fool his IQ.
Orochimaru glanced around with his eyes like a snake.
Even the Byakugan can't see through the flaws in the shadow clone, but the transformation technique is different.
However, this place was densely forested and full of strange ancient trees. Orochimaru didn't have Byakugan, so it was natural that he couldn't find Hinata and the others.
"Hehehehe... It's so funny that a kid fooled me."
"Did she discover my identity...or sense a dangerous aura?"
"What a vigilant brat."
More than forty seconds later, Hinata, Naruto, and Sasuke arrived at the gate of the tower.
Hinata wiped the sweat from her forehead, feeling that her whole body was about to collapse, and sighed: "Huh I'm really lucky, I actually ran out."
Naruto glanced at Hinata suspiciously and asked, "Hinata, was that person very powerful just now?"
Sasuke's face was gloomy and he said solemnly: "Very strong!"
Naruto and Sasuke both know Hinata very well. If they encounter a team that is weaker than theirs, Hinata will definitely attack them without saying a word.
Hinata's abnormal behavior after meeting Orochimaru was naturally noticed by the two of them.
Especially when Hinata pushed Naruto out under the pretext of 'bun fight', Hinata's desire to escape was simply obvious.
What ninjutsu does Naruto know?
He can only use one move to create a shadow clone.
Sasuke looked at Hinata and asked, "What now?"
Hinata also had a dark face. Counting Kiba and Neji, as well as the Konoha ninjas from the other three teams, Hinata didn't have to worry about a feast for the next seven months.
Ga and the others are going to treat Hinata to a feast for three months, and the other teams are for one month.
But now...
Seeing that there are still a dozen scrolls left in my hand, if the operation is done well, this will be a feast for more than a year!
I really lost a lot this time!
There may not be such a good opportunity to slaughter others in the future.
Hinata looked back at the gloomy Forest of Death. Isn't Orochimaru still waiting inside?
Hinata shuddered.
I definitely don't want to fight that disgusting guy Orochimaru.
It doesn't matter if you lose, the Heavenly Curse Seal can make people stronger.
What's scary is that Orochimaru will suddenly stretch out his long tongue and tie you up, or channel a big snake and swallow you into his belly...
"Let's go! Pass this exam first!"
Pushing open the door of the central tower, Hinata and the three of them walked in side by side.
There was no one in the empty room, and there was a copybook written by "Three Generations" with a very unknown date hanging on the wall.
Hinata looked around a few times and said, "Maybe let us open the scroll!"
Naruto and Sasuke took out two scrolls of 'Heaven' and 'Earth' from more than a dozen scrolls and opened them at the same time. The scroll seemed to be a psychic technique, with a big word '人' written in the middle.
A burst of smoke came out...
Sasuke shouted: "Naruto, throw away the scroll!"
The two of them threw the scroll out at the same time, and a lot of smoke came out of the scroll. Iruka stood in the smoke, looked at Naruto with a look of relief, and said lightly: "Hi! Long time no see!"
Naruto opened his mouth, showed an exaggerated smile, and shouted: "Iruka-sensei-how did you appear in this way?"
Iruka smiled and said: "We Chunin were originally going to welcome the candidates for the second test here... Congratulations to you for passing the second test."
"To celebrate..." Iruka touched his nose, seemed a little shy, and said arrogantly: "When the exam is over, I will treat you to Ichiraku Ramen to celebrate..."
Naruto immediately threw himself on Iruka and shouted: "Long live..."
After playing around for a while, Iruka pointed at the calligraphy on the wall and continued, "The order we received is to convey to you the experience of 'Chunnin' written by Lord Hokage."
Hinata stretched out her finger and scratched her little face, asking, "Teacher Iruka, are you a shadow clone now?"
Naruto looked at Iruka curiously. Can Iruka also have a shadow clone?
