Chapter 112 Where is Manda who is so big like me?

Chapter 112 Where is Manda who is so big like me?

In the warehouse of Orochimaru base.

"Onions, potatoes, and frozen meat..."

Hozuki Suigetsu looked at the ingredients in the warehouse and sighed in surprise: "Your prison food is not bad, and there is such a thing as meat."

"It's the meat of wild beasts in the forest."

Ranmaru, who often hunts in the wild with Kurosuki Raiga, added, "If you buy it from Kirigakure Village, it's worth a lot of money."

"Good eyesight."

Yakushi Kabuto with Katsuya on his back praised Ranmaru.

"The quality of the meat is very high, and it is specially used for those experimental subjects with bloodline limit. Orochimaru-sama needs them to maintain sufficient physical strength to maintain growth." Although he has betrayed a lot of information about Orochimaru, Yakushi Kabuto still calls Orochimaru by his honorific title. Which shows that he admires Orochimaru in his heart.

"But, I still don't understand..."

Ranmaru asked doubtfully: "Since Orochimaru wants to use them for experiments, why bother to train them? Also, Orochimaru can obviously kidnap them directly, why bother? Let Manda destroy their homes first, and then let you abduct these children?"

"What don't you understand? Looking at the corpses in the laboratory, I know that guy is a complete psychopath, it's nothing strange."

Hozuki Suigetsu didn't care about these people locked up in the base as Ranmaru did, so he wasn't interested.

"A giant bird that flies too high will look very small in the eyes of chickens and ducks on the ground."

Yakashi Kabuto helped his glasses with newly replaced lenses, his tone was condescending and contemptuous, "People who lack wisdom cannot understand That's why you came to this conclusion."

"You're just a prisoner, don't be so proud."

Hozuki Suigetsu looked sideways, his teeth grinding against each other and creaking, "If the teacher hadn't specially ordered it, I would have killed you long ago. Your skull would have peeled off and been used as a ball for those crazy guys on the second floor."

"Useful people always have privileges."

Giyu was not around, and even though there was a time bomb attached to his back, Yakushi Kabuto showed no fear. He turned his gaze to Ranmaru.

"Let me answer your second question first. Why did Lord Orochimaru let the snakes destroy these villages first, and then asked me to recruit children like you who have bloodline limits?"

Ranmaru was eager to learn the answer.

"The purpose of destroying these villages and killing all the villagers is to plunge these children into despair and darkness. Some children who survive and see everything they know disappear will either commit suicide on the spot, or they will stay there helplessly and slowly Waiting for death; while others will bravely walk out of the village in order to survive. This is the first level of screening. Those who have no desire to survive will also have no value here and can only be reduced to the second level. Like the Garbage on the second floor."

"And my task is to contact these children who have a desire to survive, tell them that we will provide food and shelter, and guide them to use their own power. Of course, I also told them clearly that they need to be locked up at the beginning. Later, if they want more power, they have to take more risks, including the risk of death. Generally speaking, at this time, some of them will Most of them will take the initiative to follow me back. "

Yakushi Kabuto paused, "So, they are different from the real prisoners on the second level. In their hearts, they are 'guests' who take the initiative to participate and have the right to choose. No matter what Orochimaru wants them to do in the future, they will be more proactive and positive, because everything is their 'own choice'. Compared with simple prisoners, people with this illusion have more fighting spirit and will grow faster, which is exactly what we need."

"But one day, they will know that it was you who sent that big snake to kill their family members. "

Ranmaru said seriously.

"So what if they know? If we don't destroy these villages in advance, they will be the ones who die when their abilities are exposed to everyone. Will those villagers and even their parents let them go in order to protect themselves? Wouldn't it be crueler for them to have that experience? "

Ranmaru thought about the people in the village trying to starve him to death, and lowered his head in silence.

Yakushi Kabutoi said darkly: "Those who are thoughtful will understand that Lord Orochimaru not only did not harm them, but actually helped them retain a happy childhood. The impression also gave them the most precious power and opportunity, reversing their fate of dying. As for those who can't figure it out, they can only become higher-level consumables. After all, some experiments cannot be carried out until they have grown to a certain level..."

"So, are these people living in deception from beginning to end?" Ranmaru murmured.

"People who feel happy are good at self-deception."

Yakushi Kabuto shook his head and said slowly: "Who really likes the truth? "

"At least the teacher never lies. "

Hozuki Suigetsu's words made Ranmaru's complexion slightly improve.

"It will happen sooner or later." Yakushi Kabuto's expression looked quite determined, "This is the fate of being a ninja."

"Whatever you say, People like you who like to play with these little tricks know nothing about the teacher. "

Hozuki Suigetsu didn't want to continue on this topic, so he walked slowly to the depths of the warehouse, opened the door to the inner room, and slipped in.

Yakushi Kabuto heard the movement and quickly followed him: "Please don't tamper with things in that room because it is dangerous to all of us. "

Hozuki Suigetsu obviously had no intention of obeying.

He held a fist-sized metal container in one hand and stuck out the door: "What is this?"

"Grenade. "

Yakushi Kabuto snatched the thing away with his hands. Before the attack of the Hozuki Suigetsu, he said with a serious face: "This is a weapon improved by Lord Orochimaru. Its power is equivalent to five top-level explosive tags. As long as this ring is used, If you pull it out and throw it out, it will explode. Even ordinary people who can't extract chakra can use it. "

Some villages, such as the Grass Ninja Village, are particularly fond of this new gadget. Orochimaru can make a lot of money from them every year.

"Oh my god! "Hozuki Suigetsu shrank his neck and jumped out of the room.

Without it, there were dozens of identical items on the shelves in the room. If they exploded at the same time, the entire base could be destroyed.

Yakushi Kabuto spared Hozuki Suigetsu, put the grenades back on the shelf, and rearranged them neatly.

"What about the one next to it with the word 'Shock' written on it?" Hozuki Suigetsu pointed curiously.

"That's a shock bomb, which can make people lose their sense of direction and faint by making a huge sound." Yakushi Kabuto introduced.

If you want to catch test subjects without causing casualties, this thing is very useful.

"What about this one?"

"Smoke bombs specifically targeted at opponents in closed spaces, which can make people unable to open their eyes."

"And this one..."

Curious Baby Hozuki Suigetsu had many questions, and Yakushi Kabuto answered them one by one, for fear of this guy touching them?

"What is this last thing?" Hozuki Suigetsu looked at the delicate white bottle.

Yakushi Kabuto was silent for a while, and suddenly said thoughtfully: "Speaking of which, this is a weapon specially developed for the Sharingan after Orochimaru-sama met Shunshin no Shisui last time..."

"So what is its use? What is it?" Hozuki Suigetsu asked worriedly.

"It can make people..." Before Yakushi Kabuto finished speaking, a "beep-beep-beep" sound suddenly sounded in the base.

"Someone is here." Yakushi Kabutoi pushed Hozuki Suigetsu out and locked the door. "I rang the doorbell. It should be a guest."

"Could it be the guy with hair like fire that the teacher mentioned?"

Hozuki Suigetsu ran out happily, followed by Ranmaru and Yakushi Kabuto, all the way to the monitoring room.

On dozens of black and white screens, scenes from various "cells" and corners of the base were played, with floors and locations marked.

In the display screen named "Exit w1", there is a man wearing a cat mask and wearing a black body.

"This is... Kirigakure's pursuit force?"

The mask triggered Hozuki Suigetsu's memories.

"No, this is the root ninja of Konoha..."

When the word "root" was mentioned, Yakushi Kabuto's nose wrinkled for a moment, showing strong hostility, but he immediately calmed down and returned to normal.

"I have to go out to see him."

"Do you think I will let you reveal what happened here?"

Hozuki Suigetsu said with a grin: "Who knows what the relationship between you is! 'Roots' or something, I've never even heard of it."

"The root is a secret service agency under the ANBU of Konoha. Your teacher is a member of the Uchiha. As soon as he arrived here, Konoha's special agents followed him here. What do you think this is? Is it a coincidence?"

Yakushi Kabutoi held up the middle part of his glasses, "Konoha's attitude towards Uchiha is very similar to the Fourth Mizukage's attitude towards the Hozuki clan. Are you sure you don't want to know why he came?"

Sure enough, After hearing what Yakushi Kabutoi said, Hozuki Suigetsu was not as determined as before.

Seeing that Hozuki Suigetsu was hesitant, Yakushi Kabuto pressed a button at the bottom of the screen: "If you press this button, you will know what I said to him. Is that okay?"

Hozuki Suigetsu and Ranmaru looked at each other. Finally, he nodded, but he did not forget to warn him: "If you dare to do something strange, this slug will turn you into acid water in an instant!"

"Don't worry."

Yakushi Kabuto put on a wide white coat to cover his back. He walked out without looking back, "I still cherish my life."

"I wonder who wanted to die yesterday..."

Hozuki Suigetsu said sarcastically and stared closely at the figure on the screen.

A minute later, Yakushi Kabutoi opened the secret door in the hidden cave and came face to face with the masked Root Ninja. This is one of the exits from the base.

"A signed letter from Lord Danzo."

The root ninja spoke concisely and took out a scroll and held it in his hand.

"I will hand it over." Yakushi Kabuto reached out to take it, but the root ninja took a step back.

"I was told to hand it over to Orochimaru in person and get a reply. Isn't he here?"

Yakushi Kabutoi was silent for a while, feeling a sticky feeling on his back.

He felt that if he dared to let this person in, he might die on the spot.

"Excuse me, are you a ninja from the Aburame clan?"

Yakushi Kabutoi adjusted his glasses, showed a warm smile, and asked an irrelevant question.

But when the other party saw this smile, he was obviously a little wary: "You know the rules, don't ask what you shouldn't ask."

"That's it, Lord Orochimaru is conducting an insect transformation experiment, and it just needs to be compared with parasitic insects. I understand..."

"Here you go." The Ninja quickly put the scroll into Yakushi Kabuto's hand, "I'll wait here for a reply."

"I'll be back as soon as possible." Yakushi Kabuto squinted his eyes, closed the door, and returned. In the monitoring room.

"Give me the thing!"

Hozuki Suigetsu snatched the scroll, slowly unfolded it, and browsed the contents.

However, what surprised him was that it was just nonsense like greetings and there was no need to use a ninja tool like a scroll to write it.

"That's it?" He scratched his head in confusion.

"It should be a secret code." Ranmaru reminded: "Only part of the words have meaning."

When operating with Kurosuki Raiga, Kirigakure Anbu's orders were issued using similar means.

"Sure enough, you are much smarter than this guy who only has water in his head."

Yakushi Kabuto came over, "Most of the documents at the root are written using a secret technique. Only using special hand signs can one see the real content."

Then the hand signs of Yakushi Kabuto's changed one after another, the words on the scroll trembled, and the pen and ink began to arrange and reorganize as if they came alive.

"Sure enough, it has something to do with the teacher!" Hozuki Suigetsu exclaimed.

You don't need to read the text, just look at the portrait with dull eyes at the beginning of the volume to know.

Then, the three of them browsed the rest of the content together.

The content of Shimura Danzo's letter is very simple - he first explained what Giyu did in Yugakure Ninja Village, and then asked Orochimaru to capture or kill Giyu and torture him to find out the latter's purpose of going to the Kingdom of Water. The most important thing is to give a "living human head" carried by Giyu to the root ninja who delivers the message.

"These people are far away in Konoha, how come they know everything?" Hozuki Suigetsu sighed.

"It means there are spies in Yugakure Ninja Village, and every move you make is under their observation."

Yakushi Kabutoi looked at the box hanging by Hozuki Suigetsu, "Is this the 'living head' mentioned in the letter?"

"It's none of your business." Hozuki Suigetsu snorted coldly, and then his face darkened, "It seems that the teacher has been targeted by the people of his own village."

This kind of enemy is the most troublesome. Look at the Hozuki clan. You'll know the outcome.

Moreover, the letter made it very clear that Uchiha Giyu should be captured, but life or death won't not matter.

"It's unrealistic to subdue him. I'll send him away first and say that Orochimaru-sama will do it."

Yakushi Kabuto adjusted his eyes and legs and was about to go out.

"Wait a minute!" Hozuki Suigetsu called him, a trace of excitement surged on his face, "I have a way to confuse the teacher's enemies in Konoha!"

Before anyone else could ask, Hozuki Suigetsu immediately put up a finger: "Let's just say that Orochimaru has already killed the teacher for experiments. In this way, the teacher's enemies will no longer stare at him."

"But, all Sharingan eyes in the base were taken away by your teacher." Yakushi Kabutoi shook his head, "Otherwise, I could give them one pair, saying it was your teacher's eyes. Just relying on empty words and no evidence, They won't believe it at all."

" Who said I have no evidence? Just wait a moment!"

Hozuki Suigetsu ran out happily and ran back with a book in his arms.

"This is the teacher's summer homework! It's enough to prove that he has fallen into Orochimaru's hands!"

"Well... Konoha Ninja School should have his handwriting for comparison."

Yakushi Kabutoi opened the homework and looked at it. When he saw the hand written fonts, he nodded, "I can barely give it to the root."

"Then let's do it like this." After Hozuki Suigetsu nodded, Yakushi Kabuto immediately imitated Orochimaru's tone and wrote a reply envelope and enveloped it, And the context written was that - Uchiha Giyu who was seriously injured in the battle and had been used for experiments. The two Sharingan eyes were just double tomoe, not worth caring about at all. As for the "living head", he "Orochimaru" had never seen it before.

This is completely in line with Orochimaru's character. If Hidan's head fell into his hands, he would never give it to anyone else.

In this way, after Hozuki Suigetsu checked it over and over several times, he asked Yakushi Kabuto to hand over Giyu's summer homework and the news of his death to the root ninja.

After Yakushi Kabuto handed over Giyu's summer homework and the news of his death to the root ninja. The Root ninja returned to Yugakure Ninja Village, he meet his boss, the Yugakure Village Butler named Kamuchi. The latter used his unique secret technique, super pseudo-beast painting, to generate an extremely fast big bird and put the homework and news together and brought it back to Konoha.

Unfortunately, this summer homework may never reach where it should go - Iruka's desk.

A few hours later, as night fell, war suddenly broke out in Kirigakure Village hundreds of kilometers away.

The Kaguya clan, known for their fighting mania and low IQ, suddenly launched a rebellion and the entire clan attacked on Kirigakure Village. Most of the Kirigakure ninjas took the initiative to stop the chaos.

However, the Kirigakure elite Jounin Momochi Zabuza, known as the " Demon of the Hidden Mist", only showed his face and disappeared.

He did not die in the battle with the Kaguya clan, but quietly sneaked to the big lake behind Kirigakure Village, intending to take advantage of the chaos to assassinate the fourth generation Mizukage Karatachi Yagura, thereby ending the blood mist rule.

If successful, he will become the hero of Kirigakure Village and become the fifth Mizukage.

However, something went wrong, which kept him from taking action.

"Sir Zabuza."

A young ninja with beautiful appearance and indistinguishable male and female appeared behind Zabuza Momochi.

"Haku, you finally got away, why did it take so long?"

Momochi Zabuza's mouth was wrapped with gauze, his voice was a little dull, and he sounded very impatient.

Haku's eyebrows drooped, and his eyes were full of tears but he held it back, "I'm sorry to keep you waiting. There are too many dead people in the village, and I can't leave for a while..."

"Now is not the time to be merciful. When will you become a satisfactory tool?"

Momochi Zabuza complained about Haku's uselessness, but at the same time lowered his head and said with concern, "Be careful and don't get caught."

Haku nodded, a blush appearing on his face.

Momochi Zabuza frowned and looked out from behind the stone: "Things went awry. Someone attacked at him first. karatachi Yagura has been subdued?"

"Who is it?" Haku was shocked.

The Fourth Mizukage likes to hang out here. He accidentally saw him when he was practicing ice release ninjutsu. It should be kept secret.

"See for yourself." Momochi Zabuza informed him, then he leaned half of his head out and looked at the river beach not far away.

Two men wearing fire cloud robes were below.

One of them was holding a thin-edged sword half as wide as a door and sitting on a fallen dead tree, seemingly waiting.

Another man with long hair stood aside and made a sign with his hands. And the Fourth Mizukage Karatachi Yagura, who was famous in Kirigakure, was lying at his feet with wounds all over his body.

A stream of red energy surged out of karatachi Yagura's body and poured continuously into a clay pot, as if performing some kind of magic spell.

"That's a Executioner Blade!" Haku lowered his voice, hiding his surprise, "Is that person Biwa Juzo-sama?"

"It should be him, but the other one is also very troublesome."

Momochi Zabuza looked at the other figure, His expression was ugly, "Orochimaru, one of the Sannin of Konoha, I never expected to meet him in this place."

"Zabuza-sama, since Yagura has been subdued..."

Haku said happily: "You don't need to take risks anymore. We should go back to help them now. Terumi Mei-sama is in great need of manpower..."

However, Zabuza refused.

He stared at the two voices below and said coldly: "Those idiots from the Kaguya clan don't need me, others can solve them. But Yagura's life should never be taken away by a rebel ninja and an outsider. "

"Do you want to take action against them?" Haku's face became the same as his name, "But there are two of them, and they are both characters who are not easy to mess with."

"They just fought with Yagura, they should not have much chakra left. At least, the whole person should be in a state of relaxation. In addition, Orochimaru is using some kind of technique. I should be able to kill him immediately using the silent assassination technique. Then we will deal with Biwa Juzo together and regain the Executioner Blade, and finally kill Yagura. In this way, all the credit belongs to us!"

Momochi Zabuza seemed to have seen the scene after the plan was successful, with strong enthusiasm in his eyes.

However, when he looked at Haku hopefully, there was only deep worry in the latter's eyes.

"What, are you scared?"

"No." Haku gritted his teeth, "I am Zabuza-sama's tool. If this is your wish, I will do it for you even if I give my life."

"Don't say unlucky words at this time! If you are willing, prepare to take action!"

Zabuza put his hands together, preparing to release the Hidden Mist Technique in preparation for the assassination.

However, the next moment, the woods behind him suddenly shook violently.

[somebody is coming? ]

The master and servant both turned their heads at the same time, just in time to see an orange-red fire burst out from the forest, and then passed over their heads with twisted air.

An extremely hot storm swept through the space above the two of them. Momochi Zabuza quickly pressed Haku's head and lay tightly on the ground.

When they stood up again, they all looked at each other's curled hair in fear, and then they all stuck out their heads and looked down - where the river beach was.

The orange-red fire was like a meteor streaking across the night sky, leaning down from the cliff and rushing towards where Orochimaru and Biwa Juzo were. To be precise, it was behind Orochimaru.

Momochi Zabuza and Haku held their breaths. At this moment, they saw the truth of that ball of flames.

A short man wearing a fox mask held a notched ninja sword in both hands and swung it towards Orochimaru's neck from top to bottom.

The latter felt the crisis and promptly stopped the technique and turned his head, only to be met by the fatal heat wave and the brilliant blade.

A human head with hair on fire flew out and fell into the rocky beach over a distance of more than ten meters.

Biwa Juzo on the side finally reacted and raised his sword high to slash at the uninvited guest. The latter dodged the blade and directly stretched out his left hand to grasp the back of the Executioner Blade and pulled it hard, pulling Biwa Juzo along with it.

"Don't hinder me."

Giyu's cold voice came from behind the mask, and he swung the Sword with his right hand to slash at Biwa Jozu hands which were holding the blade.

Seeing this, the latter hurriedly gave up the Executioner sword, but was kicked by a vicious kick on the sword process, and flew out like a folded chicken wing. The dark blood vomited in the process already showed the seriousness of his injury.

Giyu did not follow up to attack on Biwa Juzo, but looked coldly at Orochimaru's headless body at his feet and stood there.

"Stop pretending, I know you can't die from such an attack."

Sure enough, as Giyu finished speaking, Orochimaru's chopped-off head and body turned into turbid muddy water.

About fifty meters away, a shadow of a soft-bodied creature emerged from the rocky beach and transformed into Orochimaru. It looked like the genie in Aladdin's lamp.

Orochimaru looked at Giyu with interest and said, "Ho ho ho, cutting off someone's head without saying a word is not a polite greeting..."

Before he could finish his words, a very fast sound came out. The water line shot pierced the center of his eyebrows, and Orochimaru was "killed" again.

Water Breaking Wave without any seals is so convenient.

Orochimaru's body did not fall. He opened his mouth like a snake and spit out a brand new Orochimaru.

But as soon as Orochimaru opened his eyes, Giyu once again used Flame Breathing: First Form:Unknowing Fire to block him. The fiery red chakra blade was about to kill him again.

"You..."

[Can't you even communicate? ]

The Orochi-style Substitution Technique requires a large amount of chakra to be used!

Orochimaru opened his eyes almost furiously and stabbed at the enemy. His dark red tongue stretched out like a sharp sword, turning into a python and biting Giyu's blade.

But in the next moment, the snake was cut open along its trunk as easily as butter.

Orochimaru had already realized that the guy opposite him, who was only the height of a child, was different from his previous enemies. He seemed to be too lazy to say a word to him.

The other party wanted nothing except killing him.

Orochimaru bit his teeth and cut off his tongue. His body crawled on the ground like a real snake. He swayed to the left to dodge several slashes, and finally distanced himself from this lunatic opponent.

However, when he turned around, he saw a giant tiger made entirely of flames, charging towards him with broad steps.

[Non-Seal technique! Was it used instantly again? ]

Looking at the white flame, Orochimaru didn't have time to think too much, he just felt his mouth was dry for a while.

He stretched out his thumb and bit it in his mouth, then put his palm on the ground, intending to use Manda's body to block this terrifying attack.

[Although Manda's serious injury will affect my relationship with Ryuchi Cave, it can't be controlled that much...]

However, the imagined scene did not happen.

Manda did not appear. It's like when a patient has a heart attack and dials 120 but doesn't get through.

Fatal mistake!

[What are you doing? ]

[What about a snake like me? ]

Orochimaru raised his right hand and looked at it as if he was stupid, and then was engulfed in flames in a daze.
