Chapter 290: The Great Crisis of Folding Mirrors! Identity exposed?
The middle ninja exam hosted by Konoha Village has officially started in less than three days, and the ninjas from various ninja villages have also entered Konoha Village one after another.
The streets of Konoha Village are now full of ninjas wearing forehead guards from other ninja villages, or "ordinary tourists" dressed in other countries' style costumes.
Of course, these ordinary tourists are not real tourists, but the daimyos, officials, and task entrusters of various countries who have come to watch this Zhongnin exam all year round.
In terms of the composition of ninja combat power, most ninja villages are similar.
Although the number of lower ninjas is large, the strength is low, and the number of upper ninjas is too small, so the middle ninja is the backbone of a ninja village.
The Chunin Examination can measure the strength of the new generation of Shinobi in each ninja village, so that the task entrusting parties led by the daimyo of each country have a more direct judgment standard in the dispatch of missions.
Therefore, the middle ninja exam is actually an arms race between the various ninja villages, and it is the "ultimate test" to bet on the glory and future of the village.
Especially in recent years, the historical legacy of the Third Ninja World War has gradually weakened, and the requirements for the training and selection of the middle ninja in each ninja village are also increasing.
In addition, this is the first open-to-door Zhongnin exam held after World War III, presumably this Zhongnin exam will be very popular and exciting.
...
"But having said that, this time, among the five major ninja villages, only Sand Hidden Village and Konoha Village participated, and Yunyin Village, Iwayin Village, and Fog Hidden Village did not participate, so I always feel that there is a little less flavor."
"There's no way around it, these three villages are all villages that have had a war experience with Konoha Village in the Third Ninja World War, and they definitely don't want to send ninjas to Konoha Village."
"Well, it's no wonder, and since the death of the fourth generation of Mizukage, the fifth generation of Mizukage of Fog Hidden Village has also been slow to decide."
"According to the first-hand information I have received, there are a total of 153 people who took the Zhongnin exam this time, of which Konoha Village has the largest number of people, with 72 people, followed by Sand Hidden Village, with 30 people."
"There are still some ninjas from the small ninja village left, 21 people from Yuyin Village, 15 people from Kusakure Village, 12 people from Takiyin Village, and 3 people from Otoshi Village."
"Wait a minute, what's Otoshinobi Village?"
"You don't know this, the sound ninja village is a new generation ninja village established in the country of Tian, and it is a mysterious ninja village that still doesn't even know who the village chief is."
"The newly established ninja village dares to take the middle ninja exam? It's really a group of rural villagers who don't know the height of the sky. ”
"Hahahaha! Who knows what those people think. The peripheral gambling market is about to open, and I want to bet that the people in the sound ninja village will not be able to pass the first test. ”
"I'm the same!"
In the cubicle of the restaurant, a pair of good brothers are walking out side by side.
But they didn't notice that right next to the cubicle they were sitting in, in the cubicle just a wall away from them, sat the people of Yinyin Village.
The number of participants in Otokuin Village is the smallest of all ninja villages, and with the leader of the team in Orochimaru's disguise, there are only four people in total.
Of course, this is only a superficial person.
Sack heard the people at the table next to him taunt him, and he slapped the table and was about to chase him out, but was immediately stopped by Jintu and Toth next to him.
"Your Excellency is still here, what are you doing out there?"
"But they..."
"Shut up! Sit down. ”
Jin Tu seemed to have a big sister's momentum among the three of them, and in a few words, he made the impulsive Shack sit down.
But more of this majesty comes from the person sitting across from the three.
Although it seems that this beautiful man with a good face is just an ordinary Otogain Murakami Shinobi, who has just come to serve as the leader of the Otogakuin Village team, the three of them all know that the person sitting in front of them is the village chief of Otogakure Village.
Orochimaru!
At this time, Orochimaru's face was not angry because of Sack's impulsive action just now, but indifferently brought the dish from the chopsticks to his mouth, and then showed a smiling expression.
"The food in this restaurant still tastes like before..."
"Why don't you eat it? Eat. ”
Although in the eyes of normal people, Orochimaru was just smiling in an ordinary way, but in the eyes of these three ordinary Ninjas of Otokuin Village, this smile contained an infinite eerie chill and dangerous aura, and even made the three of them can't help but have a cold war.
The three of them looked at each other for a moment, and quickly picked up the dishes and chopsticks to eat.
At this time, Orochimaru put down his chopsticks, looked at the layout around the storefront, and remembered the days when he drank and had fun with Jiraiya and Tsunade after the mission.
Although Orochimaru is not good at drinking, he replaces alcohol with other drinks every time, but it was also quite fun to watch Jiraiya and Tsunade get drunk at the time.
But now that I'm back in Konoha Village again, everything is gone.
This time, Orochimaru was invited by the fourth generation of the Sand Hidden Village, Kazekage Rasha, to carry out the Konoha Honkai plan.
Although Orochimaru didn't have much interest in the plan itself, after all, Orochimaru's ultimate goal now was to collect the Silver Key and the Book of Necromancy.
As for the old grudges such as the three generations of Hokage passing on the position of Hokage to Bo Feng Shuimen and not to himself, Orochimaru doesn't take it too seriously.
Besides, the current Hokage is not an ape flying sun.
What really makes Orochimaru excited is some of the other "values" of Konoha Village.
Based on information provided by the Sand Hidden Village to show their sincerity in cooperation, Orochimaru learns that Konoha Village has obtained a special biological sample near the Craftsman's Country.
The Land of Craftsmen is close to the Land of Wind, so it's not surprising that there are spies in the Sand Hidden Village around.
Although the information of Sand Hidden Village does not say how "special" it is, Orochimaru is now very interested in any special creature.
And according to the information sent back by Yakushidou, who has been lurking in Konoha Village, it seems that the night of the Uchiha clan's extermination is not so simple.
A survivor of the Uchiha clan, Sasuke Uchiha has always claimed that someone else killed the patriarch of the Uchiha clan.
Combined with the conversation Orochimaru had with Uchiha Itachi when he was still in the Akatsuki organization, Uchiha Itachi asked himself if he had an old ruler named "Black Pharaoh".
This made Orochimaru also have some interest.
There is a more important reason, that is, ten years ago, in the process of stealing the Cthulhu statue and defecting to Konoha Village, he once passed by the Inuzuka family's training ground.
At that time, he was attacked by a monster that resembled a swollen bat that appeared in a strange throwing object.
This incident is still fresh in Orochimaru's memory, and it has even become a shadow that cannot be erased in Orochimaru's memory.
At that time, Orochimaru clearly heard two faint human breaths hidden behind the tree, and such breathing sounds may be children, but it may also be a clumsy shimmering shinja with breath-holding techniques.
But in any case, that strange throwing item was definitely thrown by a human!
And today, Orochimaru has finally figured out what that strange throwing object is.
During his interactions with Mi Go, Orochimaru learns that Mi Goe is a creative race that worships technology and is fierce.
In the history of their race, they have created countless amazing technologies, even touching the edge of dark technology mastered by the outer gods.
At this point, there is no race in the universe that can match them.
They had created the seed of Azathoth from the seed of Azathoth, the source of all things, Gadamon, an immature ruler of the old days.
They have also built a teleportation network with many magical portals, allowing them to move quickly between outposts on various planets.
They have also created an item that connects with the power associated with one of the avatars of the god of a thousand faces, Nyaratotip, which is called "Shining Cubic Octahedron".
That's right, the shining octahedron is a technological product created by the Mi Ge race!
And the one who used the shining home remedies octahedron that day...
Orochimaru is very interested in the identity of this person!
