Chapter 5: Orochimaru
"Congratulations to my master, 15.7 Hate Points."
"Huh? That's it? ”
A hateful voice suddenly sounded in his mind, and Qimu Shuohui couldn't help but be a little speechless.
Only 15.7 hatred points were gained from the Uchiha Nai and the person named "Waterfall", and now it takes 100 points to improve the first-order strength in the lower ninja stage, and it will be even more exaggerated in the future.
It seems that the improvement of strength is far from being as easy as I imagined!
Fortunately, I have now recovered the writing wheel eye, and even awakened the kaleidoscope.
Although Qimu Shuohui's current comprehensive strength is almost only a middle ninja, with the kaleidoscope writing wheel eye and those two secret techniques, he encounters a ninja with average strength, and he has no power to fight.
"Hey, I'm so tired, let's find a place to rest."
Qimu Shuohui staggered up from the ground, first used a large fireball technique to burn the body of the "waterfall" to ashes, and then prepared to find a hidden place to rest for a while.
At this moment, his eyes suddenly felt a sharp pain, and he felt like they were about to be torn apart.
"Ahh My eyes hurt so much..."
Qimu Shuohui covered his eyes, and suddenly saw that his hands were covered with blood.
"Hate, what's going on? My writing wheel... Why is it bleeding. ”
"Master, because you just used the Kaleidoscope Writing Wheel Eye with great intensity. This can be very damaging to your eyes, and if you keep using your eyes, you will end up blind. ”
"Blind?" Qimu Shuohui hurriedly asked, "Is there any way to stop blindness?" ”
"Master, the Uchiha will choose to take their brother's kaleidoscope writing wheel eye to evolve their own eye into an eternal kaleidoscope. In this way, there is no danger of blindness when using the writing wheel. ”
Brothers? How can I have it!
Isn't it time for me to be blind?
Just as Hagi Sakuki was puzzled, the Hate System added, "But you can choose to upgrade with 10W Hate so that your eyes will evolve into an eternal kaleidoscope." ”
"Oh, I see..."
At this time, Qimu Shuohui, who was relieved, felt a wave of tiredness coming, and hurriedly set off to find a safe place to rest.
The sky darkened, and the night grew darker.
The terrible cries of several crows set off the atmosphere in the forest a little cold.
Fearing an enemy attack or assassination by someone from the Uchiha clan, Shoki Hachiki did not enter a relatively hidden cave until he found it, lit a fire, and sat down to rest.
He took out the roadmap of this mission from the ninja bag on his waist and fell into deep thought.
Since Uchiha Nai even burned the supply box with Amaterasu by me, even if this mission fails, do I still have to go to Shuiyun Town?
If you don't go, if you go back to the village, I'm afraid you'll be remembered by the Uchiha people again.
Still have to go! But I'm going to make up a reason for Uchiha's death...
By the way, I still have to keep it a secret if I break the seal and regain possession of the Sharingan, otherwise I will arouse the suspicion of those people.
Having made up his mind, Hachiki Shuohui decided to rest for the night and continue to set off for the town of Suyun on the front line of the Land of Rain.
In addition to avoiding exposing himself to the recovery of the wheel eye, the most important thing is that when he arrives at the front line, Hachiki Shuohui can find a reason to stay and participate in the battle.
After all, the easiest and most direct way to gain hatred is to kill enemy ninjas on the battlefield.
Nothing was said all night.
Qimu Shuohui just closed his eyes and simply squinted for a night.
After all, being alone in the wild, and now it is a time of war, it is dangerous to fall into a deep sleep.
"It's time to go!"
Qimu Shuohui got up, patted the dust on his body, took out the map, looked at it a few more times, confirmed the route, and hurriedly set off.
The journey to the Land of Rain was not too close, and he still wanted to hurry to the battlefield.
Three days later.
Outside the town of Shuiyun.
A dusty figure approached quickly, and suddenly, several shuriken flew out of the woods on either side and attacked the figure.
"Who is it?"
Qimu Shuohui quickly sensed this sudden danger, and rolled sideways to dodge the shuriken, looking around with a serious expression.
"I'm sorry, but we're a dark sentry outside of Shuiyun Town. Your speed was too fast just now, I didn't see your forehead guard clearly, I thought it was an enemy attack. ”
Two figures suddenly burst out of the dense forest beside the road and stood in the middle of the road.
"I came to deliver supplies this time, but the materials were destroyed by the enemy attack on the way."
Qimu Shuohui stared at the two people in front of him and said the reasons that he had already made up.
"Under enemy attack?" One of them's expression suddenly became serious, "How many people did you have in this team before?" ”
"The two of you," Hachiki Sakuki said with a look of grief, "We were ambushed by a team of rain shinobi not far from the Land of Rain, and my captain, Uchiha Nai, sacrificed himself to protect me..."
After hearing this, the dark sentinel's expression also fell lonely, and he was silent for a while and said, "The taste of the sacrifice of my companions... It's uncomfortable, but we're sorry, but we still need to check your identity before we can release you. ”
"Okay..."
Hagi Sakuki took out the map from behind him, and on the back of the map was a portrait of the bearer and a mark of the Hokage-sama's own spell, which was used as a basis for identification in wartime.
"Well, it's indeed the Hokage-sama's mark," the sentry checked and returned the map to Sakuki Hagi, "I'll take you into town now." ”
Hagi Shuohui nodded in reply, put the map back in his bag, and followed the man briskly into the town.
Shuiyun Town was originally just a small town on the border of the Land of Fire and the Land of Rain, but as soon as the war broke out, this strategically located town became a must for both sides.
In just one year since the war began, dozens of battles have taken place between the two sides in and around the town.
Qimu Shuohui walked into Shuiyun Town, and saw that there were broken walls and ruins everywhere, and there was not even a complete building.
The ninjas of Konoha set up tents in the open space as a resting place, and the wounded were everywhere.
War, what a cruelty!
"You're still a recent graduate shinobi, right?"
The secret sentry who led the way saw Qimu Shuohui looking at everything around him in a new way, and at a glance he could see that he must be a rookie who came to the front line for the first time.
"Yes, this is also my first mission... It's a pity that it failed. ”
"It's okay," the man reassured, "it's all you need to do your best, and most importantly... It's to live. I'll take you to Orochimaru-sama now and ask him to arrange the next tasks for you. ”
"Orochimaru?"
Hagi Shuohui is no stranger to this name. As one of the three disciples of the three generations of Hokage, Orochimaru is still quite famous in the village, and I heard that he is strong, and he is already an elite among the upper ninja at a young age.
The most important thing is that because of the eldest brother Qimu Shuomao, Orochimaru and him can be regarded as acquaintances.
"Yes. The commander of our Shuiyun Town is Orochimaru-sama. ”
"Okay."
After speaking, Qimu Shuohui didn't say anything more, and followed the man all the way briskly, and after a while, the two walked to a tent.
The dark sentry opened the curtain of the tent and walked in, followed by Qimu Shuohui.
"Orochimaru-sama, this is the Shinobi Banner Mu Shuohui who has just arrived. His mission was to deliver supplies to the town of Waterclouds, but he was attacked by the enemy and the mission failed. ”
"Okay, I see, you go down first."
Qimu Shuohui looked at the thin and tall back in front of him.
His trademark, somewhat hoarse voice told him that this man was the Upper Shinobi Orochimaru who had been in the limelight since the beginning of the war.
"You're Shuo Mao's younger brother, aren't you?"
Orochimaru suddenly turned around and looked at Hachiki Shuohui with interest.
Qimu Shuohui became a little nervous for a moment, and the hairs on his body stood up, as if he was being targeted by a snake for his prey.
His intuition told him - Orochimaru was dangerous!
"It's... Yes. ”
"You seem to be afraid of me? Hahaha... Relax! Orochimaru smiled to himself and continued to ask, "Did the rest of your squad die?" ”
Hachiki Shuohui calmed down and replied, "In addition to me, there is also a captain of the middle ninja, he... sacrificed. ”
After listening, Orochimaru was also silent. The sacrifice of Konoha companions is always a very sad thing.
"Well... No way, war, there will always be casualties, you have to learn to adapt. Tomorrow I will arrange for a few other shinobi who have also come to deliver supplies to return to the village with you. ”
"My lord, I... I want to stay here, is it okay to participate in the battles at the front? ”
"Huh?" Orochimaru looked a little surprised, "You're just a newly graduated shinobi, it's too dangerous to stay here." Or a less risky task like delivering supplies is more suitable for you. ”
"But... But I wanted to stay. ”
Orochimaru waved his hand, and then said, "I also know something about what happened to you. I know you want to be stronger, but you can't even use chakra right now, and your strength is too weak to go into battle, so there's no need to stay here and die. ”
Hachiki Shuohui wanted to defend something, but seeing Orochimaru's categorical appearance, he knew that he wouldn't agree no matter what, so he had to give up and walked out of the tent in a gloomy manner.
He walked out of the tent worriedly, thinking hard about how he could stay. Suddenly, a crisp voice interrupted her thoughts.
"Hello! My name is Hinata Kiyoka, and I'm a disciple of Orochimaru-sama! ”
Hinata?
Qimu Shuohui looked at the smiling girl in front of him, her eyes were really white!
