Chapter 336: Advice [Medium]

Fortunately, Naruto likes to use this inadvertently remaining word game to trick others. So much so that after the vigilance was completely online again, almost at the moment when Orochimaru's words fell, Naruto sensed the existence of the seemingly natural descriptive word "know everything" from between the lines...... So much so that after a little pondering the aftertaste, the small abacus in Orochimaru's heart was guessed by Naruto.

That is to use this seemingly logical text trap to test the true amount of information that Naruto has. So much so that as long as Naruto didn't notice this, he subconsciously still only cared about pleading with his head. is undoubtedly acquiescing to Orochimaru, and he really knows all the information about the Xiao organization!

Fortunately, there are policies and countermeasures......

"Where...... You know what's going on...... I just know that most of the members who have joined this organization are S-class traitors who kill people without blinking......"

After perceiving the key point, Naruto, who is already a master of word games, naturally will not fall twice in the same place again. and then skillfully moved his facial muscles, deliberately making a pitiful and aggrieved appearance. Secretly pondering his tone, he stammered to Orochimaru in response.

"If I'm not mistaken, Grandpa Jiraiya once told me that most of the rebels who can be defined as S-level have the top strength level of the shadow level...... In this case, it must be quite dangerous to let Grandpa Jiraiya go to Yuyin Village alone, of course, you have to find a way to stop it! ”

Of course, in these words, Naruto, who seemed to be helpless and could only passively endure Orochimaru's repeated questions, inadvertently made a clever ......

That's what lies between the lines, in addition to concealing most of the most important content. The information revealed is true. So much so that with a clear conscience, Naruto seemed extraordinarily straightforward when he responded. didn't wait for Orochimaru to ask anything more, as if he was frightened by Orochimaru, he took the initiative to reveal the reason for persuading Jiraiya to give up the trip to Yuyin Village. And invisibly, with Naruto's superb acting skills, Naruto's pitiful, helpless, scared, and aggrieved weak image was suddenly vividly displayed!

In addition, in Naruto's words, it can be said that without a trace, he slapped Orochimaru's ass quite secretly......

No, just like the wordplay that Orochimaru deliberately kept before...... When describing the S-class traitorous ninja's murderous style without blinking, Naruto intentionally or unintentionally added the word "most". And then his face was as usual, as if he was ignoring Orochimaru's rebellious identity, and it was extremely natural to remove Orochimaru, who was waiting for a response in front of him, from this derogatory queue. So much so that Orochimaru was slightly stunned, and after realizing Naruto's intentions, his favorability towards Naruto naturally increased by a small percentage again.

And the next development was just as Naruto expected......

"Really...... I see......"

Orochimaru, who had just made a final inquiry similar to Mending the Knife out of caution, was naturally carefully observing back and forth, and he couldn't see any flaws and illusions from Naruto's words and deeds, and he was completely relieved. Immediately muttered to himself, and most of the killing intent and aura coercion that were faintly permeated on his body and deliberately used to scare Naruto dissipated with it.

Obviously, from the extraordinary talent shown by Naruto, as well as the trust and cultivation of the three generations of Hokage and others, Orochimaru saw his former self in a trance. And in Orochimaru's cognition, he has already identified Naruto as the current Hokage of Konoha Ninja Village, the candidate for the new generation of Hokage selected by Sarutobi, just like himself back then! And then empathize, why the young Naruto has so much information that he doesn't even know about, he naturally feels relieved and understood.

After all, even if he has been working hard outside the village over the years. So much so that during this period, I don't know how many ninja villages and countries I traveled around, and what terrifying amount of information I collected. But at the end of the day, I'm just alone......

In other words, a person's energy and ability are limited after all. So much so that even Jiraiya's strength can definitely be regarded as above the vast majority of people in the Hokage world. But in terms of intelligence gathering, how can it compare to the Konoha Ninja Village, a huge machine that is silent?

It is precisely because of these common sense cognitions, combined with the fact that Naruto is trusted and cultivated by the three generations of Hokage, that Orochimaru naturally pushed the reason why the existence of the Akatsuki organization was exposed to this little guy and pushed it on the head of the three generations of Hokage. Even Naruto, who is going to be "panicked" at the moment, is even more convinced that he is just a young child who accidentally leaks his mouth because his scheming is too simple.

And this was the best way for Naruto to quietly choose to divert his attention after thinking about it for a while...... So much so that quietly, the three generations of Hokage, who clearly knew about the existence and threat of the Xiao organization, were like a monk who was confused by the two monks. Under inexplicable circumstances, he took a small "black cauldron" on Naruto's back.

Well, if you think about it this way, the three generations of Hokage who are far away in the Konoha Ninja Village will probably sneeze several times one after another inexplicably after Naruto gave this "gift......

Of course, even in the bottom of his heart, he had already approved Naruto's reply. And in front of Naruto's sensitive appearance that he was like a great enemy, as if he would completely turn his face with a little more stimulation, he quietly gave up the dangerous idea of continuing to tease and tease. But between the words, how could the famous tsundere, another version of the second pillar of Orochimaru, tell Naruto bluntly that he was very satisfied with him?

"Ahem...... This answer, let's count you through, little one......"

Because of this, after a little silence, he digested and understood all the meanings contained in Naruto's words. Although the aura oppression permeated Orochimaru's body, all of it dissipated into nothingness. But in the verbal response, it was as if Naruto had just reached the passing standard, showing a lack of interest.

"But you have to remember...... Everything about the organization must not be easily revealed to the outside world, do you know? ”

It's a pity that this image of high [arrogant] and cold [Jiao] only lasted less than three seconds, and it completely collapsed and collapsed because of the close relationship between Naruto, Jiraiya, and the three generations of Hokage, as well as the fact that he liked this quirky little guy more and more.

"Whew, is this clear? It's more tolerant than I thought...... Uh, wait...... Wait? Orochimaru: This is considered to be in ...... Care about me?! ”

At the same time, after hearing Orochimaru's inconsistent words of advice and warning. Naruto, who had just been relieved by the alarm being lifted, stood in place as if he had discovered a new world. Immediately, he was afraid that he had some auditory hallucinations, so he began to quietly put his hands behind his back and secretly pinched them. In the bottom of my heart, I couldn't help but quietly mutter.

"Orochimaru, this guy, actually cares about other people...... Hissβ€”β€”! It's still painful, so it's not my ear problem...... right? From this point of view, if Orochimaru hadn't completely fallen into a blackened paranoia like during the Zhongnin exam in the original book, it would seem quite easy to get along with? ”

Of course, the reason why Naruto trusted Orochimaru so much in his words and deeds, so that when Orochimaru's tone was obviously much more relaxed, the reason why he relaxed again was because of the common problem of being almost obsessed with and paying too much attention to face among the powerhouses of Orochimaru's level.

After all, since the moment Naruto decided to make a showdown with the three Hokage in order to rewrite the fate of the Uchiha clan. Among the many characters that Naruto came into contact with, not to mention the rare Shangnin, even if he was a shadow-level powerhouse, he was almost in a state of being uncommon. So much so that in the process of getting along, Naruto was able to confirm that there is a default common sense in this Hokage world - the more powerful the person, the more he values his face! As a result, once the strong make a promise in person, they can almost do what they say!

Because of this, although Orochimaru never promised Naruto on the surface that he would not report all the information about Naruto after returning to the Akatsuki organization. But the subconsciously added words of exhortation, as well as the hint of asking Naruto to do something that was not mentioned from beginning to end, had already exposed Orochimaru's true choice at a glance. And through the previous experience of deliberately flirting with Jiraiya, Naruto was enough to judge that Orochimaru's previous indifferent and cold appearance was just an extremely rare joke with himself.

In the face of this truth, it was natural to guard against the overly nervous worry in Naruto's heart, and to relax and soothe it again. Immediately, Naruto secretly rejoiced in his heart that he did not choose to do it directly, exposing more hole cards, which caused irreparable consequences. When Naruto faced Orochimaru, his words and deeds were no longer as stiff and unsmooth as before.

At the same time, of course...... Naruto, who adheres to the idea that good will be rewarded for good, and evil will be rewarded for evil, but he didn't plan to turn this little episode over the story simply. Instead, from Orochimaru's words and deeds, it was confirmed that Orochimaru at this moment was not only maintaining an extremely deep bond and trust relationship with Jiraiya, who was persistently trying to bring him back to the village. Even the three generations of Hokage, who personally expelled him from the Konoha Ninja Village, still have a lot of old feelings and scruples. It made Naruto's mind turn sharply, and he counted it in his heart. So much so that he came up with a promise that could not only repay Orochimaru's promise, but also brush Orochimaru's favorability towards Naruto again. It is even more able to completely throw the intelligence source of the Xiao organization to the head of the three generations of Hokage, or rather, the intelligence department of the Konoha Ninja Village!

That's like being bored with himself, and some of the information of the Xiao organization will be revealed to Orochimaru again!

"Ah, by the way, Orochimaru-sama...... I'd like to ask about ......"

Thinking of this caused Naruto to be silent for a moment, and after sorting out the thoughts and words in his heart, he raised his head and feigned uncertainty. On the one hand, Orochimaru's attention and gaze were attracted by his own words, and he reunited on himself. Without waiting for Orochimaru to respond, he took the lead in following the topic and continued with curiosity on his face.

"In the Xiao organization, is there a ...... A weirdo with a white body on one side and a black body on the other? ”

"Huh? One side is white, the other side is black......"

Naruto's abrupt rhetorical words made Orochimaru, who was not expectant, obviously stunned for a moment. Immediately realizing that the strange person Naruto was talking about was most likely the one in charge of the intelligence gathering of the Xiao organization, he frowned, and after thinking about the gains and losses seriously, he nodded slightly at Naruto.

"Yes, there is such a person...... How, do you know him? ”

It's not that because Orochimaru is optimistic about Naruto's favor, Orochimaru has been able to answer all of Naruto's questions...... And simply because, as I said before, the conversation between smart people and smart people will sometimes save a lot of trouble.

After all, just like every question Orochimaru asks is based on the fact that he already has a certain amount of speculation and even strong evidence...... After Orochimaru thought about it, Naruto, who was reluctant not long ago, for fear that he would say something wrong, dared to warn Naruto to mention as little as possible all the information about the Akatsuki organization. Still speaking up, he asked about the members of the Xiao organization. even described the appearance characteristics of the absolute at all, and he must have a certain degree of certainty. As a result, Naruto's abrupt and proactive questioning was more like a simple formality. So much so that after that, it doesn't matter what kind of answer you will get.

It is precisely because of these considerations that in Orochimaru's view, it ......

Rather than painstakingly fabricating lies and trying in vain to cover up and refute......

It's better to admit it happily, and then wait patiently for Naruto's next words to see what kind of calculation this little guy is having, which will be more convenient and useful!
