The words are divided into two ends, and he is busy stealing ...... Collecting materials, while Naruto was enjoying the warm glow of Nono Woo's mother's love, he unhurriedly approached the location of Jiraiya. Orochimaru, who left the Xiao organization, was accidentally obtained based on his close monitoring of Yakushi's whereabouts. He began to tweak his original route slightly, so that he could make his way to the location of the root organization's secret contact point, which was the cause of Yakushidou's sudden change of direction.

……

In the chaotic wild jungle, at this moment, it seems to have triggered some carnival beast tide, and there are all kinds of colorful poisonous snakes. After wandering around aimlessly for a while, as if receiving a specific signal, they began to converge towards the location of one of the poisonous snakes. Immediately, with the poisonous snake as the center, it began to be stacked layer upon layer, gradually highlighting the general outline of a slender human body. And in the end, it was completely condensed, turning into a handsome man with slender eyeshadow - it was after leaving Yuyin Village that he rushed directly to the secret contact point of the root organization to find out what Orochimaru!

"This is it, it's really hidden deep enough......"

The hoarse and low male voice overflowing from his mouth muttered to himself, and Orochimaru slowly leaned down. Then he stretched out his hand expressionlessly and plunged straight into the thick pile of beast excrement in front of him. After groping and stirring for a while, he quickly took out a small sealed bamboo tube that had already been stained with filth.

"Tsk, that old guy from Tuanzang...... Although it is said to be on the safe side, this way of hiding information is really as bad as ever......"

After getting what I wanted for this trip from the filthy and smelly excrement. Rao was with the concentration of the Great Snake Pill, and when he saw that his white and slender palms were really covered with filth, he couldn't help frowning a little.

Since the reason for the existence of the root organization's secret contact points is to get in touch with members who act as spies and exchange information. Then, in order to prevent the leakage of intelligence, the way of concealment is naturally not something that can be imagined by common sense. So much so that even if Orochimaru had identified the contact point for Yakushidou to change the direction of his journey by monitoring Yakushidou's whereabouts, it should be within this area. I also had to search like a carpet search, and I searched for most of the day. In the end, it was still thanks to the meticulous search ability of the incarnate snake, and the small self-destruction technique applied to the bamboo tube in order to prevent the leakage of information. Only then did Orochimaru be able to follow the vine and barely find this seemingly inconspicuous small bamboo tube.

In other words, although Orochimaru was verbally scornful, Serimaru, who was able to determine the approximate area of the contact point, was so painstakingly searching that he almost missed it, resulting in a futile effort. It is enough to see that this method of concealing information is actually quite effective.

"So, then, let me see...... What happened to that child......"

He shook his head slightly, holding back the disgust in his heart. After a little scrutiny of the inconspicuous gadgets in his hand, he skillfully lifted the self-destruction technique applied to the small bamboo tube. Then he smoothly took out the dry yellow letter paper placed inside, spread it out in the palm of his hand, and squinted to read the content written on it.

"Hmm...... This handwriting, although scribbled, does look like the old fellow's handwriting...... Could it be that the old guy is still alive? ”

After a brief moment of silence, he read and memorized the few numbers recorded on the letter paper in his hand. In order to avoid arousing the suspicion of the root tissue, Orochimaru re-rolled up the letter paper and stuffed it back into the bamboo tube, re-created a self-destruction technique, and re-stuffed it into the beast excrement in front of him. Immediately, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he used a simple water escape ninjutsu to turn his chakra into a small stream of water, washing the stench and filth on his hands. As he chewed on the command written on the letter paper repeatedly, he muttered in a low voice, thinking about the possibilities contained in it, and his brows involuntarily furrowed.

"But it's a matter of spying on yourself...... That old immortal thing, what the hell is it starting to fight again? He's trying to do something to that hopeless idiot......"

Obviously, although Orochimaru is now, he has long been reduced to an S-class traitor who is wanted by Konoha Ninja Village. However, since the timeline has not yet reached the middle ninja exam, in other words, it has not been more than ten years since the day of Orochimaru's defection. Make Orochimaru despite always verbally claiming to destroy the Konoha Ninja Village. But in the depths of Orochimaru's heart, he just can't get used to the trend of decay and defeat in Konoha Ninja Village. And then he wants to use destruction to evoke new life, and make himself the wind force that drives the great windmill of Konoha to turn again.

In other words, at this moment, Orochimaru has not completely abandoned the bond with his former teammates and former division commanders. And in terms of starting point, except for the pursuit of eternal and immortal life, he did not do anything out of the ordinary except for the transgressive operation that went mad, so that the human body taboo experiment caused the anger of the crowd. Even the inside information related to the Konoha Ninja Village, Orochimaru has never revealed a single bit to others......

What's more, strictly speaking, Orochimaru's defection, like Obito, was actually stimulated by external factors.

The death of my parents, and the loss of many lives that I witnessed during the war. Especially after his own disciple, Tsunade's own younger brother, Senju Rope Tree, was blown up alive by the enemy in front of him. Orochimaru, who was originally obediently walking on the future path planned by the third generation Hokage, and marching towards the position of the fourth generation Hokage, began to secretly sigh at the fragility of life. And based on all the abilities he has mastered, he is trying to develop ninjutsu that can make people gain eternal immortality. Even quietly, without anyone being aware of it in time, he began to drift away from the wrong path. And in the end, in the irreversible trend, it developed into the current status quo of breaking up and defecting.

In addition, although the current Orochimaru, has joined the Akatsuki organization. And some time ago, he provided assistance in clearing the obstacles for Yunyin Village's plan to infiltrate Konoha Village and try to kidnap Hinata Hinata. But compared to the indifferent and ruthless Orochimaru who did not hesitate to assassinate and pretend to be the fourth generation of the Wind Shadow Raksha in order to destroy the Konoha Ninja Village during the middle ninja exam, causing the Sand Hidden Village to invade Konoha Village. In today's Orochimaru, there are more of them, but they are like children who are not understood by relatives and friends, and are angry and "running away from home" and making awkward trouble, vaguely mixed with a bit of frank arrogance.

Based on the premise of this complex and special mind, Orochimaru saw that the order given by "Danzo" turned out to be when the medicine master went to monitor Jiraiya's every move. Instead of feeling the slightest pleasure of watching the tiger fight from across the mountain, Orochimaru couldn't help but feel worried about the safety of the lascivious idiot who was always lacking in his brain when he didn't even notice it. Unconsciously, the past that was originally buried deep in my heart began to emerge and come to my heart.

And this past has to be traced back to the Second Ninja World War...... That is, before the name of the Konoha Sanninja became famous all over the world, it was just an unknown part of the war......

……

"Earth Escape: Rock Iron Cannon Technique!"

With a burst of uniform, resounding cheers, the ninjas of Iwain Village who surrounded the hill began to spit out a large number of boulders from their mouths. Immediately, like heavy and powerful cannonballs, they burst out of the air with huge force and bombarded the hills. The power gathered together is so great that Rao is the scale and material of this hill can be regarded as large and solid enough. Inevitably, under the loud roar, it began to stir up bursts of gravel dust and tremble violently. So much so that when you look at it from a distance, under the joint attack of the people of Yanyin Village, this hill that is constantly trembling and screaming seems to be unable to withstand this blow at any time, and completely collapses and collapses!

Of course, Yanyin Village, which is in the midst of a war, obviously will not deliberately mobilize such a large number of people to do useless leisure and elegance.

The reason why such a large number of rock ninjas gathered here and launched a fierce attack on the bare and inconspicuous hill in front of them is also very simple - three nameless ninjas from the Konoha Ninja Village are hiding in a cave in the middle of the hill.

The strength of these three Konoha ninjas can be regarded as one against ten. So much so that even if one of them was seriously injured, it was not something that the Iwa ninjas present could deal with alone. In addition, it is not clear which cave these three Konoha ninjas are hiding in, resulting in the current Iwain Village, even if these three people are forced into a desperate situation, they are still facing an unfavorable and thorny situation of the enemy and the enemy.

In this case, rashly going up the mountain to search will obviously make Yanyin Village pay a great price for casualties. But if you give up and watch the three people who caused a lot of trouble to Yanyin Village, they just swagger and escape, but it is a situation that Yanyin Village doesn't want to see. So much so that after thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and transferred another batch of reinforcements. Began to bombard directly with ninjutsu, trying to completely raze the hill and let the three people hiding in it directly bury here. This is what looks like a spectacular picture of a large stone shoot at the moment.

As the camera shifts, it gradually shifts to one of the many caves naturally formed by the hills, behind one of the caves that the three Konoha ninjas used as a hiding place. To be able to obtain this "honor" and be so "hospitable" by Iwain Village, the identities of the three Konoha ninjas are about to come out...... Obviously, it is the three people who have not yet fought with Sanshoyu Hanzo, and thus won the title of Konoha Sannin, and then became famous all over the world.

At this moment, Orochimaru and his party, because of the timeline, look much younger and more vigorous. But if you look closely, you can still vaguely see some traces of the outline of the future after the erosion of time. Or it can be said that because of the forbidden secret technique of orochimaru to take away rebirth, and the yin seal of the thousand hands Tsunade to keep his youth forever. Among the three people, there is a big difference with the future image, and only Jiraiya, who has turned into a greasy and lustful uncle, is left.

Of course, in addition, the situation faced by the three of them at the moment can be described as quite tricky......

In the process of being discovered and pursued by Iwakuin Village, although Tsunade and Orochimaru did not suffer much damage on their bodies except for the chakra consumption problem. But compared to the two who were almost unscathed, Jiraiya's injuries, who sat down against the rock wall, were obviously not so optimistic.

Scarlet blood spilled from his mouth, and armor that had long been stained red with blood. It is enough to prove that at this time, Jiraiya has suffered extremely serious internal injuries. The short, weak and heavy breath conveyed such a message to Orochimaru and Tsunade - as their mutual partner and best friend, the vitality of Jiraiya, who has always been very aggressive, is like a candle in the wind, which may be completely cut off at any time, and it will be annihilated and disappear!

In this case, adhering to the principle that ninjas give the highest priority to completing tasks, Orochimaru watched coldly, and soon came to a cold, cruel but rational and realistic conclusion - now Jiraiya has completely lost the ability to continue fighting. If you still insist on breaking through with Jiraiya, it will only become a burden on the road for yourself and Tsunade to escape, and then add a few more unfavorable factors to the chances of the three of them successfully escaping.

And that's not even the worst-case scenario......

If time permits, under Tsunade's uninterrupted medical ninjutsu healing, with Jiraiya's strong vitality. Orochimaru will more or less believe that Jiraiya's injuries can gradually improve, and it is not impossible to save a life and even regain a certain ability to move alone.

But the fact is that the people of Yanyin Village, who are eyeing the cave outside, obviously will not give the three of them a moment of extra respite and recuperation.

The violent tremor of the mountain, and the huge roar that kept coming to the ears. It is enough to prove that the cave where the three of them relied to hide and rest is no longer safe. It is even more in a dangerous situation that it may completely collapse in the face of this powerful attack at any time.

In the face of this critical situation, Jiraiya was already seriously injured and unable to move, not to mention, even Orochimaru and Tsunade themselves also consumed a lot of energy and chakra in the battle that broke through for several days. In addition, in order to keep Jiraiya's last breath, regardless of his own chakra attrition, he tried his best to perform medical ninjutsu, so that the chakra reserves became more and more precarious. After letting Orochimaru calmly compare the gains and losses, one thing was confirmed - the longer it dragged on, the slimmer the hope of escaping became.

In other words......

If you want to save your life and leave the possibility of completing the mission......

So, in this time of emergency......

Ditching Jiraiya, who has become a useless burden, and letting him stay here as a bait to cover his retreat with Tsunade is the first and necessary choice!
