Chapter 272: Old Friends Meet
Ninja School.
After some arguments of "I'm not the big snake pill, I haven't bitten my belly", this farce finally came to an end.
Except for Zoryana, who still had classes to attend, her parents and Itachi went home first, and the adult Xianglin also followed her in the name of reminiscence.
Young Sasuke took the initiative to stay, and he had to carry out the task of monitoring Orochimaru with Hinata, Kari, and Tam.
Sasuke faintly expects that this guy in front of him is the big snake pill, so that he can happily vent the depression left over from the farce just now.
Orochimaru was also in a depressed mood, but with a gloomy face, he took Mitsuki into the office of his homeroom teacher, Shino, and began the interview session of the parent-teacher meeting.
Orochimaru sat down side by side with Mitsuki, and without saying anything, Shino broke out in a cold sweat.
Although Shino Oil Girl used to be a Konoha Xiaoqiang who could single-handedly overturn an entire enemy fleet in the theater version, but since he devoted himself to Konoha's children's education, his combat effectiveness has dropped to the point where even ninja school students can't beat him.
Sitting in front of a character like Orochimaru, the insects on Shino's body were trembling unconsciously.
Orochimaru said lightly, an unconscious majesty flashed in his amber snake pupils: "Shino-kun, please start!" ”
Shino nodded hurriedly: "Okay, okay..."
Faced with the strange parent-child combination of Orochimaru and Mitsuki, he, the teacher, is more like a student being educated...
A moment later, Orochimaru pushed the door open alone.
Tamu and the others, who were waiting outside the door, hurriedly greeted them, especially the young Sasuke's eyes were the sharpest.
"Why did you come out alone?"
Tam asked a little strangely, "Your..."
As soon as he said this, Tamu felt a little disobedient, and couldn't help but pause: "What about your child?" ”
"Tsuki?"
Orochimaru naturally shouted out the name, and there was a bit of elder warmth in his voice, which made Tamu clearly feel his tenderness as a parent.
Orochimaru smiled a little self-deprecatingly again:
"His homeroom teacher said that he would talk to Mitsuki alone so that he could understand the child's thoughts."
"It seems that everyone is still quite wary of me!"
Orochimaru glanced at Tamu meaningfully: "It's like you, Tamu-kun..."
"Haha..."
Tamu laughed a little awkwardly, his targeting and hostility along the way were undisguised.
But now that he said it on the table, Tamm simply swayed frankly:
"With Orochimaru's glorious deeds, it's hard not to be wary, right?"
Orochimaru smiled: "That's all in the past..."
"Haven't I been at peace with Konoha for the past sixteen years?"
"I just want to do some scientific research, and it doesn't conflict with everyone's fundamental interests."
Tam said angrily:
"But the other you, the original you, are crazy."
"Assassinate the Kazekage, attack Konoha..."
There was a slight hint of mockery in Tamm's voice:
"There are also human experiments and forbidden research that go against human ethics..."
"If you commit such a crime, you can be safe with Konoha without incident, times have really changed."
When Tamm said this, he was just talking about it.
He knew that Orochimaru was actually able to successfully clear his name because of his decisive achievements in the four ninja wars;
This kind of whitewashing method is already the most reasonable in the Hokage world.
"Yes, times have changed!"
Orochimaru's voice suddenly became excited, and he followed Tamu's words to bring the topic in another direction:
"Now this ninja world is a ninja world where scientific concepts are gradually taking root in the hearts of the people."
"Human experiments, biotechnology, and genetic engineering are finally no longer prohibited matters."
"The old conservative thinking can no longer hinder people's search for truth."
Orochimaru expounds his philosophy loudly, as always, showing his paranoia as a mad scientist.
The voice was not small, and it was heard far away.
is holding Boruto's hand.,Walking side by side with Tsunade into the ninja school, Jiraiya's expression was stunned:
"What is this voice? Orochimaru! ”
The expression on Tsunade's face became serious, and she hadn't seen this dangerous old classmate in a long time.
And this once-famous Orochimaru, actually appeared in Konoha, or in a ninja school full of children?
The two hurriedly left Boruto and adult Hinata and ran quickly in the direction from which the voice came.
However, they were surprised to find that this route was not the same as the route they were going to the ninja school office.
With the full strength of Jiraiya and Tsunade's feet, this distance is just a moment.
Immediately after, a big snake with a young face appeared in front of them.
"Orochimaru!"
Seeing the target who had been looking for more than a week and had not heard from him appear in front of him, he couldn't help but shout.
Then, he was surprised to find that his familiar junior brother Tamu and the three genius boys Hinata, Xiangri, and Sasuke were also present.
Although the atmosphere was faintly tense, it was still safe and sound.
"You..."
Jilai was also a little confused: "What is the situation?" ”
Tamu had no choice but to come forward and explain:
"According to his own words, he is the Great Snake Pill of this world, and it has nothing to do with the Great Snake Pill we are looking for."
"Huh?"
Jiraiya was slightly stunned, and then he realized that he seemed to have heard from the adult Naruto that Orochimaru, an old classmate in this world, was still alive and well.
And judging from the current situation, the other party is still getting younger and younger...
So, Jiraiya tentatively said to Orochimaru: "You, you are the Orochimaru of this world?" ”
Orochimaru glanced at Jiraiya's familiar face, and a look of nostalgia flashed in his eyes.
He didn't answer Jiraiya's question directly, but just sighed softly, and his cold face showed a rare emotion: "I haven't seen your face at the end of the crane for many years..."
"You..."
Jiraiya looked at Orochimaru, but his thinking suddenly changed to another place: "You finally returned to Konoha?" ”
Jiraiya once chased the figure of Orochimaru for more than ten years, just to chase back this friend who had gone on a crooked path;
And now that this other "future" Orochimaru can appear in Konoha Village so openly, could it be that his wish that he has insisted on for many years has finally come true?
"Sure enough, the concept of parallel worlds is really amazing..."
Orochimaru once again showed an emotional look, and his feelings were so rich that he didn't look like the original Lengjun Orochimaru:
"Even talking and doing things are exactly the same as the tail of the crane."
He specially answered the question of his old classmate head-on:
"I'm currently a person from another village who has nothing to do with Konoha Village..."
"As for coming to Konoha this time, there is another reason."
"What is the reason?"
Jiraiya asked curiously, he had always been the most concerned about the news of this old friend, no matter which world the other party was.
Before Orochimaru could speak, Tamu on the side couldn't help but explain in a strange tone:
"Orochimaru came to Konoha this time..."
"I'm here for a parent-teacher conference for his son..."
Zilai was also petrified: "Son, son? ”
Tsunade was also stunned, and she didn't know when her old classmate even had a son.
And, come and hold a parent-teacher conference for my son...
Is this like what that Orochimaru would do?
After an eerie silence, Jiraiya reacted suddenly, and the excitement of gossip appeared on the face of the fifty-year-old:
"You even have a son?"
"Born with whom? Who is his mother? ”
"Wait..."
Zilai also suddenly thought of something, and his expression became more and more strange:
"Orochimaru, are you his father, or his mother..."
"Neither!"
Orochimaru spoke coldly, interrupting the conjecture of this unreliable old classmate:
"Actually, he is a product of my research on the human body of an artificial immortal."
"His bloodline is fused with the genes of me and the ninja immortal powerhouse, and he doesn't have parents in the real sense."
"Uh..."
Hearing such a cold popular science introduction from Orochimaru, Jiraiya's enthusiasm suddenly disappeared for the most part.
After a short silence, Jiraiya smiled awkwardly: "This really looks like your style..."
"But..."
Orochimaru changed his words, and his face showed a little tenderness as a parent:
"After all, he has my blood, so it's not wrong to be my child."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door to the office behind Orochimaru opened.
A handsome young man with white hair and snake eyes walked out slowly, and approached Orochimaru's side closely, which was the moon in everyone's conversation.
"This is your child?"
Jiraiya recklessly came up, and then carefully looked at the appearance of the moon:
"This amber snake pupil really has Orochimaru's style..."
In the face of some impolite behavior, Mitsuki only showed a gentle smile, not showing the slightest displeasure.
And Zilai just continued to look at his friend's child curiously:
"She's really handsome..."
"And this white hair is quite rare, but it has a little bit of my shadow."
As he spoke, he felt a little uncomfortable, and the smile on his face gradually froze.
He remembered that Orochimaru had just gotten a science about the genetic composition of Mitsuki.
Jiraiya laughed dryly with difficulty: "Hahaha... Orochimaru..."
"The ninja immortal powerhouse you talked about before won't be me, right?"
The corners of Orochimaru's mouth hooked up a wicked smile, and the smile seemed to be mixed with a bit of mischievous fun.
Instead of answering directly, he brought up another thing without a clue:
"Hehe..."
"I see you're in that book, isn't it quite interesting?"
Jiraiya was like being struck by lightning, and he almost stumbled and collapsed to the ground, but fortunately, Tsunade beside him quickly helped him.
Jiraiya leaned weakly on Tsunade's body, and muttered:
"Brother, I'm kidding..."
