Naruto: Konoha Uzumaki Shirataki - Chapter 290
c290 Encounter with Orochimaru
“Silver, it seems we are about to enter Kirigakure Village.”
“Well, the Kirigakure Village is ahead.”
Kakashi and Shisui stopped behind a large rock, looking at the gate of the Mist Ninja Village.
“Silver, do we want to go in?” Zhisui asked.
“No need for now. Look, the cordon is not as tight as usual. I guess Kirigakure Village is waiting for someone to come to the door now.”
After Shisui heard the words, a pair of scarlet sharingan eyes opened instantly, and the black three magatama kept turning. In Shisui’s field of vision, the Kirigakure Village seemed peaceful, but in fact there were hundreds of ninjas ambushing at the door.
Seeing this, Shisui couldn’t help but take a breath. If the two of them had rushed over just now, they might have been surrounded by these ninjas. When the time comes, no matter how capable the two of them are, they will probably never have an easy time.
Shisui glanced at Kakashi with some admiration, what a terrifying judgment and observation. Kakashi didn’t notice the way Shisui looked at him, but frowned.
It is obviously impossible for Kirigakure Village to be so defensive. No ninja village would be so boring. Usually, there are hundreds of ninjas at the door, and there are many jounin among them. Therefore, by doing this, Kirigakure must have obtained some information and wanted to arrest or kill someone.
They definitely cannot be Kirigakure’s targets. Coming to Kirigakure Village to inquire about information is just a spur-of-the-moment decision made by Kakashi. This information is absolutely impossible to leak. Kakashi absolutely trusts Yugao and Tenzo. So these people should not be here for him and Shisui.
“Then who is it for? The Kaguya clan?” Kakashi touched his chin, and it seemed that this was the only explanation.
“Silver, since there is an ambush here, let’s retreat first.” Zhisui said.
Kakashi nodded, “Let’s go to the mountain over there. It’s high enough and the sightline is good enough. If something really happens, maybe we can see it clearly.”
“Okay!” So the two of them speeded up, and soon they arrived at a cliff above the mountain.
“Be careful not to be discovered.”
Not long after, I saw a figure walking slowly from a distance. He was wearing a beige kimono and a pair of wooden clogs at his feet. His pale face was filled with evil intent, and his golden vertical pupils were like snakes.
Kakashi suddenly tensed up and showed a very serious expression, “This cold feeling, it’s him! Orochimaru!”
Shirataki and Bai continued to move towards Kirigakure Village, gradually approaching the area of Kirigakure Village.
It was almost night at this time, but the entire Kirigakure Village was burning with flames reaching the sky, as if a war was breaking out.
“Is this a rebellion by the Kaguya clan?” Looking in the direction of Kirigakure Village in the distance, Shirataki’s eyes flickered, and he felt a little enlightened.
In the original work, it seems that because of Lin’s incident, Uchiha Obito controlled the Fourth Mizukage in order to take revenge on Kirigakure Village and finally came up with the blood mist policy. But now the plot has been completely rewritten, but Kirigakure Village is still in blood mist.
The reason is probably because families like Kaguya want to rebel. If a family with the bloodline limit wants to rebel, then even if the fourth generation Mizukage of Kirigakure Village is not controlled, it is impossible to deal with it indifferently. They must have issued various orders to obliterate and massacre. Perhaps the Blood Mist Hidden Village was created during various wars to seize power.
Shirataki did not stop because of the war taking place in Kirigakure Village. Instead, he continued to move forward with Shirai. After walking for a while, Shirataki suddenly showed a look of surprise on his face.
Because in Shirataki’s perception, three acquaintances appeared. Apart from Kakashi and Shisui, they were Orochimaru who defected from Konoha more than three years ago!
As they gradually approached Kirigakure Village, even Bai could see the war breaking out in Kirigakure Village, and couldn’t help but show a solemn expression. However, due to his age and appearance, his solemn expression looks no different from being cute.
Orochimaru was standing quietly on a high place, looking at the war in Kirigakure below, his eyes flickering, not knowing what he was thinking.
And when Shirataki and Shiro were gradually approaching Kirigakure Village, Orochimaru suddenly showed a shocked expression, turned around suddenly, and looked in the direction of Shirataki from a distance.
“It’s really interesting, why did he come here?” The corner of his mouth raised a somewhat evil arc, Orochimaru turned around and walked in the direction of Shirataki.
He did not deliberately avoid Bai Taki, because he knew that since he could sense Bai Taki’s arrival, Bai Taki must have discovered him long ago. Soon, Orochimaru came to Shirataki.
The moment he saw Orochimaru, Haku next to Shirataki first showed a surprised expression, and then looked at Orochimaru with great vigilance, making a defensive posture, ready to protect Shirataki at any time.
He instinctively felt that this person was very dangerous. Compared to Shirataki, his aura is restrained. Occasionally, he can only feel a sense of detachment when he spills a few auras. There is no doubt that Orochimaru’s aura is more evil, giving people the impression that he is even like some kind of creature wearing human skin. Something very scary.
“Orochimaru, you’re scaring people.” Shirataki looked at Shiro who was standing in front of him, taking a defensive posture, showing a helpless expression. After rubbing Shiro’s little head, he looked at Orochimaru calmly.
Orochimaru looked at Shirataki and spread his hands, “I didn’t mean to do this, but speaking of it, this child seems to be a survivor of the Minazuki clan?”
“I didn’t expect that there are still survivors from the Minazuki clan.” Orochimaru stared at Shiro and observed, with a look of interest in his eyes, and his eyes made Shiro feel a little creepy, and he almost couldn’t help it. Attacked.
Although it seems that Shirataki knows Orochimaru, Shiro is still very wary of Orochimaru and always feels extremely dangerous. He can’t help but remind Shirataki, “Master Shirataki, be careful, this person is very scary.”
“.” When Orochimaru heard Shiro’s words, his face suddenly became expressionless, and the corners of his mouth seemed to twitch. “Scary?! Are you kidding me? When it comes to being scary, who can be scarier than Shirataki!”
Shirataki was also amused by Shiro’s words, and simply pulled him to the side. “Okay, you don’t have to pretend to protect me when you see anyone in the future. Also, this guy is not scary. You can Go try and freeze him into a popsicle.”
“Well, it’s better not to give it up,” Shiro looked at Orochimaru and said weakly.
“You seem to know a lot about the Minazuki clan.” Shirataki looked at Orochimaru and asked casually.
Orochimaru nodded, “I have collected information on various blood successor limited families, and since I was driven out of Konoha by the Sandaime, I came to the Kingdom of Water and have stayed here ever since.”
“Hehehe got kicked out.” Bai Taki showed a slightly mocking expression on his face.
Orochimaru also showed a sarcastic expression, “I thought the Fourth Generation could do something after taking over, but I didn’t expect it. Forget it, let’s not mention it.” At this point, Orochimaru shook his head, and then continued, “The people of Kirigakure Village The Bloodline Limited Family controls power much more seriously than Konoha.”
“Although the old man did very poorly in some aspects, at least in Konoha, no family can seize power from him. But Kirigakure Village is different. Kirigakure Village is basically in a situation where major families are competing for power. , even Mizukage doesn’t have much actual power.”
“Under this kind of contradiction, the senior management of Kirigakure finally suppressed the blood succession limited family. The Minazuki clan was the first clan to be wiped out.” As he spoke, Orochimaru turned his head to look at the Kirigakure village behind him. “The clan that is launching a rebellion now is the Kaguya clan of the Blood Succession Limited Clan.”
Bai’s expression became slightly disappointed after listening to Orochimaru’s words. The reason for the suffering he suffered originally started from here. However, this disappointed expression disappeared in just an instant. No matter what the past was like, or what family he once belonged to, it was no longer important. What was important was Mr. Shirataki standing next to him. That was the person he was willing to spend his life on. To protect people.
“I see.” Shirataki nodded. Orochimaru’s words did not exceed Shirataki’s expectations. Shirataki had roughly guessed this.
Looking at Shirataki’s appearance, Orochimaru suddenly showed a slightly strange look and said in a deep voice, “Speaking of which, Shirataki, these are probably not things you care about. May I know the reason why you came to the Kingdom of Water?”
Orochimaru’s words instantly changed the atmosphere in the venue from dull to serious. Shirataki slowly looked at Orochimaru, his expression seemed to become extremely calm, “I came to the country of water just for an old friend.”
Orochimaru glanced at Shiro next to Shirataki, smiled slightly, and said nothing more. Orochimaru is a smart man, and the news of Minazuki Renge’s battle with Shirataki is not a secret to him.
The two watched the civil war in Kirigakure Village silently without saying too many words. Just when Kakashi and Shisui were about to show up to join Shirataki, a river like acid suddenly appeared from Kirigakure in front. The village surged out and rushed directly towards Orochimaru and Shirataki.
“Huh?” Orochimaru’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he jumped up to a high place. But Bai Taki on the side raised his foot and stepped lightly on the ground. After a roar, the ground in front of Bai Taki opened an invisible gap, and the acid poured in directly along the gap. Among them, not a single bit could impact Shirataki’s feet.
“This ability… turns out to be her.” Looking at the flowing acid, Shirataki’s heart moved slightly and he looked towards the Kirigakure Village in the distance. Although this river of acid was rushing towards him and Orochimaru, it was not an attack on them, but just the aftermath of the battle.
At this time, in Kirigakure Village, a handsome young man about Shiro’s age, with two red dots between his eyebrows, jumped out of the river of acid and landed on a roof nearby.
Opposite this young man is a girl with an almost perfect figure. Her hair falls on her shoulders and her beautiful eyes are like jade. Although she is only about sixteen or seventeen years old, she has a charming temperament. These two people, one is Kaguya Kimimaro, and the other is the future fifth generation Mizukage Terumi Mei.
Perceiving the battle here from afar, Shirataki showed an interesting expression on his face and murmured, “It would be interesting for these two people to fight.”
On the other side, Orochimaru is also looking at Kirigakure Village from a high place. Orochimaru has long been paying attention to Kimimaro, and Terumi Mei, who has the limit of double blood successor, is also included in Orochimaru’s information. Attention.
“This is a rare battle between blood successors.” Orochimaru also showed an expression of interest on his face, watching from a high place.
Although Kimimaro is young, as a member of the Kaguya clan, he is born to be an absolute warrior, and his fighting skills seem to be deep in his bones, innate. At the same time, he is also the most special one among the Kaguya clan.
