No one knows what the Uchiha clan experienced on the night of October 10, Konoha 48, except that Nanga Shrine was renovated afterwards, and two families within the Uchiha clan held low-key funerals.

In the early morning of October 11, on the outskirts of Konoha Village, the fourth generation of Mechanami Feng Shui Gate and his former subordinate Uchiha Obito were saying goodbye.

Shuimen quietly looked at this young man who was already about the same height as himself, and once again tried to retain:

"Is it really decided, Obito?

I can restore your identity and get you back to your old life......"

Obito shook his head and looked at his teacher firmly:

"It's not the time yet, teacher."

He took out a rusty Konoha forehead guard in his hand and looked down:

"I promised that man that I would repay him for saving me, and ......

Teach me! ”

"Madara Uchiha?"

Obito nodded, and said with a little guilt:

"I'm sorry, teacher, but I might be going down a different path......

The dream of becoming a Hokage, now that you have achieved it, teacher! ”

Watergate smiled and looked at Obito:

"What, aren't you interested in taking my shift?

You're a good successor to me. ”

Obito laughed and touched his head:

"The three generations of grandfathers have been Hokage for more than twenty years, so you can't lose to him!

By the time you retire, I'm afraid it's time for the next generation of young people. ”

Obito looked at Watergate expectantly:

"Teach Naruto well, he's going to be a great ninja.

As for me......"

Obito turned away, his figure merging with the darkness in the distance.

Ah Fei slowly turned into a mask to cover his face, and Madara's voice came:

"I am willing to walk in the darkness and guard the light that I hold dear in my own way."

He suddenly stopped, tilted his head sideways and looked at the water gate lightly:

"Beware of Shimura Danzo and Orochimaru......

If you can't do it, then leave them to me. ”

At the same time, in the orphanage in Konoha Village, only the lights in the director's office were dimly lit in the entire building.

In his office, Shimura sat at his desk, two of his subordinates standing behind him.

Danzo pouted Yakushi Nonoyu, who was standing opposite, with the only remaining eye.

"How's it going?

I don't have much time to wait for you. ”

Ye Naiyu looked at Tuan Zang with a calm face:

"I can accept my previous request and continue to be in charge of the Intelligence Division at the Root."

A contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of Tuan Zang's mouth, and he picked up a book of orphanage accounts on the desk with his left hand and opened it:

"I guess you've misunderstood something.

The reason why I agreed with you to leave the work of the Intelligence Service a little bit before......

One is because the war has gradually subsided, and there is not so much trivial information from the battlefield that needs to be sorted out.

But more importantly, I don't give a shred of trust to someone who has no sense of identity with you. ”

Tuan Zang sighed softly:

"Sometimes I really envy the luck of Hizai, his two disciples have inherited his talents and ideas in different aspects.

And you, Nonoyu......"

He looked deeply at this person whom he had admired so much that he wanted to take him as a disciple.

"I can tolerate your lack of talent as a ninja, after all, genius is hard to come by.

Your nimble, thoughtful, and undisturbed mind can be the brain of the roots. ”

Danzang stood up, sneered and continued:

"But your ridiculous compassion and fraternity are intolerable!

In order to polish away the hypocritical and kind cloak that you wrap in the outside, so that you can walk among the nations in ten years and witness the truth of this world, you should see it clearly!

Survive in this world of constant strife, whether it is a country, a village, or a person, if you are strong, you will be strong, and if you are weak, you will die!

Only a strong country and village have a future, and only then can they be qualified to stay on the field and continue to fight until the strongest is born!

There is no point in crying about the losers and the weak, and no strong person will pay attention to how miserable the civilians of the weak country are, because we simply do not have time to shed hypocritical tears! ”

Ye Naiyu listened silently, and his eyes gradually filled with pity when he looked at Tuan Zang:

"It is precisely because most of the people in this world who hold authority have similar ideas as you do, that the war will never subside......

Teacher, allow me to address you like that one last time.

You or I, don't you feel sad that we have lived in such times since we were born?

From the moment he was discovered to be able to refine chakra, learn how to use this power to kill.

After that, in order to kill people better, learn more shady strategies and obtain information by fraudulent means.

My hands. ”

She stretched out her hands and looked down:

"In the past 20 years, I have saved many people with medical ninjutsu......"

Her face was unbearable, and her hands trembled slightly:

"But there are many more who have died under these hands, and under my wiles.

Some of them deserve to die, but there are also innocent people......

I'm sorry, teacher, but I've had enough of walking in the shadows......

I just want to do my best to help these children who lost their families in the war in the rest of my life! ”

Tuan Zang sat at the table with his left hand on his face, and when he heard this, he snorted coldly:

"I don't think you know.

Are you still naïve enough to think you're qualified to negotiate with me? ”

As he spoke, he tapped the account book on the table:

"This month, the orphanage's budget has been overspent again.

Without Konoha's financial support, how long can your orphanage last? ”

Ye Naiyu looked at Tuan Zang seriously:

"The budget is spent because more and more war orphans are being sent here in the Fire Nation.

I have already submitted a written request to Lord Shidaime, and I am confident that he will support my idea......"

Before she could finish speaking, she saw Tuan Zang take out a stack of papers from his arms.

"That's it, right?

I'm sorry, but it was delivered to me before it was approved by Bo Feng Shuimen. ”

With a slight force in Tuan Zang's hand, the wind attribute chakra tore the document into confetti.

"Believe me, even if you go to Bo Feng Shuimen in person, even if that weak imp agrees.

Your grant deadline will also be put on hold, even if the grant is ......

In an orphanage on the outskirts of the village, it's not surprising that there have been one or two thefts.

You should know that, Nonoyu.

In Konoha Village, I have a hundred ways to make your orphanage untenable! ”

He glared at Ye Naiyu and said word by word:

"Remember the oath you took when you joined the Roots.

The so-called "root" person has no name and no feelings!

There is no past, and there is no future!

Want to betray me and get out of the roots?!

Who gave you courage and self-confidence?

Do you think I'm going to let someone who has so many secrets out of my grasp? ”

Ye Naiyu looked at Tuan Zang angrily:

"Then why are you still ......?"

A smile appeared in Tuan Zang's eyes:

"Because of this orphanage, it is the tradition of Konoha to collect a large number of orphans after the war.

The roots also need to be replenished with fresh blood, and you are so sweet, when I can't think of a way to plug in it......

It gave me such an unexpected surprise, so be it.

Starting tomorrow, every month, you offer six children to the roots, half of whom are qualified to become ninjas.

In this case, the orphanage's expenses will never be a problem from now on, and you can go to the land of the earth to collect information with peace of mind. ”

"What are you going to do if you don't have the qualifications to be a ninja, are you?!"

Nonoyu looked at Danzou angrily and in surprise.

"Did you guess? That's right, the experiment has come to this point, and materials are needed. ”

Ye Naiyu silently opened the door and pointed out the door:

"Get out of here, you're not welcome in this place."

Tuan Zang waved his hand to stop the angry subordinates behind him, and the three of them walked out the door:

"Don't blame me for not reminding you if you dare to reveal my plans......

None of the orphans here can survive. ”

Ye Naiyu looked helplessly at the back of the three people leaving outside the window, she clenched her fists, put on her coat and turned around and left the orphanage.

In the middle of the night, in a hidden underground laboratory in Konoha Village.

"Ahh It hurts...... Who's going to save me! ”

"Shut up! Waste, you Iwa Shinobi are really a bunch of cowards! ”

"Say these cool things...... After you've been injected with that kind of thing...... Yes!

Try this feeling...... See what else you can ...... Say so?! ”

A mist shinobi and a Iwa shinobi are on their knees, their arms secured in shackles on the wall.

Iwa Shinobi had several hideous scars on his body, and white biological tissue was placed inside.

White tissue wriggled in his flesh, and the man who had been tall and muscular was now described as withered.

Although the mist ninja on the side was stubborn, looking at the miserable state of the rock ninja, he also had a sad expression of the rabbit and the fox.

The door to the room opened, and the two of them rubbed back as if they had seen ghosts, clinging to the wall.

Orochimaru, who was thin and thin, walked in, holding a petri dish and a copy of the experiment in his hand.

He first walked up to Iwa Shinobi with great interest, and after taking a closer look, he sighed in disappointment, and wrote on the experiment log:

"Subject 13, four days after implantation of the sample.

Subject continued to weaken, and the sample showed no obvious signs of proliferation. ”

He looked up and thought thoughtfully for a few seconds, then continued:

"It seems that the upper ninja-level test subjects still can't tolerate the side effects of the sample."

“…… You...... You demon, kill me! ”

"Yes, you Konoha ninjas, aren't you afraid of being discovered if you do such a thing?!"

Orochimaru smiled, raised the chakra scalpel in his hand and looked at the Kiri Shinobi:

"Yes, it seems to be quite energetic, I hope you can hold out a few more days."

"Ahh Yes! ”

The chakra scalpel left several deep wounds on the Kiristin's body, and the white samples in the petri dish were scattered into them.

After all this, Orochimaru ignored the curses of the two behind him, Shi Shiran walked out of the cell, and then the door was slammed shut.

A light flashed a few times in the passageway, and Orochimaru glanced at it and walked towards the entrance and exit of the laboratory.

Directly above the laboratory, Yakushi Nonoyu stood under a street lamp and crossed his arms.

After a while, Orochimaru's characteristic hoarse voice came from behind her:

"It's so late, what's the matter?

Is there anything you still want to do in the group? ”

Ye Naiyu turned his head and looked at Orochimaru deeply:

"Your experiment with Danzang has arrived......

Have you reached the point where you need to use your child as experimental material?! ”

Orochimaru looked at her rather surprised:

"I've known each other for so long, and this is the first time you've had the guts to be angry with me......

Why, is this your bottom line? ”

Ye Naiyu looked at him in disbelief:

"When you were in Kikyo Mountain and stretched out your hand to the enemy ninjas, I wrote to persuade you!

I had a hunch that there would be such a day......

Why are you? Why did it become what it is today?! ”

As she spoke, she couldn't help but wave her hand and hit him in the face.

Orochimaru raised his hand and grabbed her wrist and looked at her coldly:

"Wake up, we're no longer the you and I we used to be.

That's right, Miko Maiden. ”

—————————— Memories Kill! ——————————————————————————

In the eighteenth year of Konoha Village, in the Memorial Monument Park of Konoha Village.

Sarutobi took Orochimaru with him and held a funeral for Orochimaru's parents with only two people in attendance.

Ri Slash looked at the disciple with empty eyes, sighed and said:

"Orochimaru, your parents are both elite ninjas in the shadows, and they sacrificed for Konoha ......"

"I'll never see them again, will I?"

Orochimaru looked at the transparent snake he picked up from his parents' tombstone in his hand.

"This is the molt of the white snake, which symbolizes luck and rebirth.

Maybe your parents have been reincarnated and are waiting to be reunited with you one day in the future. ”

Orochimaru raised his head, and the words that the teacher said with a smile were firmly remembered by him.

"Daddy...... Father! ”

A cry from not far away drew the eyes of the two of them.

A little girl who looked to be only three or four years old knelt in front of the tombstone and wept.

The smile on Hizai's face dissipated, and he and Orochimaru walked over, pointed to the tombstone and said:

"This is the child of the Yakushi clan, and her father was killed in this battle.

Child, what's your name? ”

The little girl touched her swollen eyes, looked up at the uncle, and said with a little fear:

“…… Nonoyu"

"What about your mother?"

The young Nonoyu's eyes turned red again, and he pointed to the tombstone......

It was the couple's joint burial tomb.

A hand stretched out in front of Ye Naiyu's eyes, and on the palm of his hand was a transparent snake moult.

Ye Naiyu raised his head, and the fair-skinned young man smiled and said to her:

"Don't cry, this, for you.

This will bring you luck. ”

"Brother, what's your name?"

The boy squatted down gently, looked at the little girl, and said:

"My name is Orochimaru, I'm just like you, my father and mother went to a distant place......

But ah, I believe what the teacher said, and one day we will meet again. ”

"Brother Orochimaru, you said, in the future, will there be a day.

There won't be any more children like us, separated from their parents for so long? ”

———————————— memories kill two paragraphs————————————————

Thirty-one years of Konoha in a medium-sized town in the Land of Rain.

Yakushi Nonoyu has joined the roots, and at this time she is lurking in the Land of Rain to provide information on the front line.

She walked silently through the streets, the war in the Land of Rain had displaced countless people, the town had not been affected by the war for the time being, a large number of refugees had poured into the town, and the streets were littered with ragged and famine-looking children.

She walked deeper into an alley and stopped, where several children gathered around her.

A little girl looked at Ye Naiyu with a longing look:

"Sister, we've figured out what you asked us to inquire about!"

Nonoyu crouched down and took out a lot of food from her backpack, and she beckoned to the cowardly children in the back.

"Don't be afraid, come over and eat together."

"Really? …… It can't be a trap like the shopkeeper that day, right? ”

"yes, Taro was caught by him and killed......"

The little girl at the head turned her head angrily to look at the group of children:

"Sister is not that kind of person!"

As she spoke, she took a vicious bite of the rice ball she had just gotten in her hand and swallowed it viciously.

After all, the children could not resist the temptation of food and stepped forward one after another.

At this time, a child who seems to have a physical disability crawls at the entrance of the alley.

"Yes...... Can you give me a little bit? ”

Ye Naiyu frowned slightly, but the little girl said to her:

"This is the new Goufu who broke his leg yesterday for stealing......"

Ye Naiyu sighed and took out the bandage from his bag:

"You guys, carry him over and watch out for his legs......"

Several children looked at each other, and under the guidance of the little girl, they walked over one after another.

"Hey, Guofu, why do you have rice grains in the corners of your mouth?"

When Ye Naiyu heard this, he silently took out the kunai in his sleeve.

"This piece of paper on your clothes is so strange, these words are strange......"

Her eyes widened, and she ran towards the children, shouting:

"Come back soon!"

Her body was suddenly stopped by a hand and pressed back.

The tall and lanky Konoha ninja with long hair stood in front of her and sealed:

"Tu Dun. Earthflow wall. ”

The violent explosion was blocked by the rock wall, and blood and stumps flew through the gaps.

Ye Naiyu knelt on the ground and looked at the small hand in front of him that was still holding the rice ball......

"Ahh

———————————————————————————————————————

"Why?! Why!

You could have saved a child or two!

You actually chose to die or not to save it!

Today, you actually put your hand on these children?! ”

Nonoyu stared at Orochimaru as she shook off his hand.

"Have you forgotten our childhood?

You were an orphan back then!

Why are you the way you are today? ”

"Haha, haha!"

Orochimaru's hoarse laughter was so piercing at the moment, and his gaze was so cold.

"Save them?

Does it make sense? Let them continue to struggle to survive in that hellish place?

Besides, who are you to question me? ”

"Smack"

He shook his hand and slapped Ye Naiyu's face without grace.

In the other party's stunned gaze, he clasped his hands and said slowly:

"What's the difference between what you did back then and those ninjas?

They use those children to kill you, don't you use those children to get information as well?

Oh no! ”

He nodded, stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, continued:

"You are more cruel than they are!

You gave those children food and hope so that they could see the light of day.

At this point, whether you or yourself, you people who claim to be kind have not seen through the world at all.

Temporary help is meaningless, and those children won't survive for more than a week without you!

Just like now, after you're forced to leave Konoha and return to your battlefield......

The children in your orphanage will return to their original destiny.

The world is too big for us to change the fate of all of us. ”

He tilted his head, squinted his eyes slightly, and continued:

"Only talented children are eligible for my help!

Wake up, Nonoyu. ”

Orochimaru turned around and walked back to his lab.

"Ever since the power of chakra was mastered, the world has divided people into two parts.

Whether you want to admit it or not, we who can refine chakra are no longer the same kind of ordinary people.

Would you grieve the death of a monkey?

Even though the monkey looked more like a human. ”
