Chapter 52: So, is it not quite right to give a ring to a girl?

"Half-hidden? That guy's strength is very good, and his ability to use poison is also strong. How could it be..." Orochimaru was stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting that the changes in the Land of Rain would be due tos death.

But then she thought of another question.

"Kenichi, how did you know?" Orochimaru looked at her disciple. Although she had to look up at Kenichi because she was not using her Reanimation jutsu at the moment, her gaze was as oppressive as ever.

She hadn't heard of Hanzo's death, so how did her disciple know?

Moreover, even the Rain Ninja Village wouldn't easily publicize the death of their village leader. The Rain Ninja Village didn't have many strong fighters; Hanzo was the only one.

The death of such a person definitely needed to be carefully concealed; otherwise, leaking it could attract the attention of other predators, which would be very dangerous.

"Because I joined an organization there, and the leader, Pain, told me." Kenichi raised his hand, showing a ring on it.

Orochimaru glanced at it. The ring had the character for "jade" on it, and the style was quite novel.

"Organization? Leader?" Orochimaru's gaze became dangerous. It seemed her disciple had grown up.

"Teacher, you will definitely be interested because the leader's eyes are the Rinnegan!" Kenichi said excitedly, knowing that Orochimaru would definitely be interested in Pain.

After all, that was the Rinnegan, the Sage of Six Paths' eyes. Kenichi had seen his teacher studying ancient books before.

Among them was a painting depicting the Sage of Six Paths, especially the rings in his eyes, which were very eye-catching.

"Rinnegan?" Orochimaru obviously knew more about that ancient secret than Kenichi had imagined. She narrowed her eyes; if that was the case, then that organization was indeed very interesting.

Orochimaru had always thought that the Rinnegan was just ancient people's adulation for the Sage of Six Paths, but it turned out to actually exist.

"Tell me about your mission this time." Orochimaru used Earth Release to create two simple chairs, then sat down and listened to Kenichi.

She was very interested in this matter.

Kenichi honestly recounted his journey this time.

However, his expression was a bit awkward because Orochimaru didn't pay much attention to her sitting posture, so Kenichi could vaguely see something incredible.

"Kenichi, Kenichi, you've fallen so low, to be embarrassed by such a thing?" Kenichi wished he could slap himself. What was there to be embarrassed about?

Although the blonde cute girl in front of him was indeed cute, the problem was that she was Orochimaru, his teacher Orochimaru, the person who liked to play with snakes!

This is not like saying in the game that your teammate plays with snakes; Orochimaru really plays with snakes.

"Akatsuki, huh? I've heard of it before, but then the rumors were that it was annihilated. But it seems that's not the case." Orochimaru narrowed her eyes, resting her chin in thought.

She had heard of this organization before, active in the Land of Rain, then a very naive and laughable organization.

At least Orochimaru found it very laughable, knowing very well in the ninja world, pursuing peace is such a naive dream, almost impossible to achieve.

But it seems they also had some connection with that idiot Jiraiya.

"By the way, teacher, Akatsuki also invited you." Kenichi remembered something he had almost forgotten.

He took out the empty ring from his pocket and handed it to his teacher.

"Oh? This is somewhat interesting." Orochimaru showed a slight smile, then took it and put it on her finger.

Kenichi scratched his head, wondering why this scene looked so strange? After all, he was just delivering Akatsuki's token to his teacher, but the action just now looked like he was putting a ring on her.

Orochimaru didn't think too much about it; she was planning to go to a nearby small country to establish her own organization and continue her research, but now she found a new destination.

That is Akatsuki.

For this organization, which was destroyed due to naivety, Orochimaru didn't have any opinion in her heart; she was simply interested in the leader's Rinnegan.

After all, that was the eye known as the Sage's eye, and Orochimaru was very envious of the power of those eyes.

"Your performance was very good, Kenichi. Didn't you say you wanted some materials before? I've got those for you; they're in Laboratory No. 3." Orochimaru looked at her disciple with satisfaction.

Her disciple's performance made her very satisfied. She had just sent him out and incidentally completed her own Reanimation, but she didn't expect to have such a gain.

Moreover, to test her disciple's loyalty, she specifically used her original body's appearance to face Kenichi, wanting to see if her disciple would have any other thoughts.

But so far, it seems not bad, at least he didn't show any disrespect to her, nor did he try to test her current strength.

"Thank you, teacher!" Kenichi was instantly excited. He had previously asked his teacher for some materials to make temperature-pressure bombs, and he didn't expect that his teacher would actually get them now.

Those things were not cheap.

"It's nothing. By the way, Kenichi, you see my body now, right?" Orochimaru looked at Kenichi seriously.

"I see it, teacher. What is this?" Although Kenichi knew what it was, he definitely couldn't show it directly, so he pretended to be completely ignorant and asked.

He originally thought his teacher wouldn't explain this issue.

"This is the ninjutsu I developed, Reanimation. If you want to learn it later, I can teach you." Orochimaru said with a smile.

Kenichi was stunned for a moment, not expecting his teacher to say it so directly, which surprised him.

But then Kenichi thought of some experiments he had taken over before, and he had seen a sentence in the logs.

[After the transfer, the body and soul may significantly weaken due to integration issues].

"Okay, teacher, but I'm still young, so I don't need it for now." Kenichi said with a smile.

He suspected his teacher was testing him, even suspecting that the sentence he saw in Konoha was also specially arranged by his teacher.

Here, she is used to refer to Orochimaru mainly to distinguish, otherwise the two "he" might get mixed up, definitely with no other intention.
