13, Light and Darkness

Two days later, a stirring news suddenly spread in the village.

The Daimyo of the Land of Fire has been attacked!

It is said that a rock ninja team somehow crossed the border and infiltrated the Daimyo's mansion, the situation at that time was extremely thrilling, and most of the guardian ninja beside the Daimyo were sacrificed, but fortunately, Orochimaru, who was in charge of escorting the supplies, arrived in time to save the Daimyo in danger.

The news spread quickly, and it was only the second day of the incident, and it had already begun to spread in the village.

I heard that the daimyo praised Orochimaru and rewarded him with many things, but Orochimaru refused, and instead asked the daimyo to give Konoha more supplies and armaments, and the request was granted.

The impact of this incident is not small, and the identity of the daimyo is extremely respected by ordinary people, and they don't know the stakes in it, they only know that Orochimaru's behavior is a very great thing, and it will increase their own face.

Moreover, in the face of the daimyo's reward, he refused to accept it, and instead sought preferential treatment for his comrades who fought desperately on the front line, and this spirit made people admire and respect.

Originally, Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas, had a very high reputation in the village, but he didn't hear much about him during this war, and this incident made Orochimaru reappear in front of the stage.

There are also rumors that the reason why he has not seen the trace of Orochimaru-sama on the front line is because he has been carrying out a top-secret mission related to the safety of the country, which has an extremely high risk and must be carried out by a strong person like Orochimaru-sama himself.

Orochimaru has not returned to Konoha at the moment, but public opinion has begun to ferment, and the clear-eyed people can see that there seems to be something behind this matter, but unfortunately there are too few clear-eyed people in the village at the moment, and most of them are on the front line at the moment.

The northern border of the Fire Nation.

As the sealing barrier opened, a garrison camp appeared out of thin air in the forest.

At the head was a resolute young man with two scars on his face, and although he had a beard on his chin, it was evident that he was not too old.

"Orochimaru-sama." He walked over to Orochimaru's side and bowed in greeting.

"Lu Jiu, are you in charge here?" Orochimaru's eyes swept over the camp behind him and slowly spoke.

"Hokage-sama has entrusted me with a heavy responsibility." Lu Jiu said without humility or arrogance.

"Orochimaru-sama has worked hard to transport supplies, I heard about what happened in the Daimyo Mansion, and thanks to Orochimaru-sama, we have been able to avoid a disaster in the Land of Fire."

Orochimaru smiled lightly: "This is nothing compared to you who sacrificed your life to fight on the front line. ”

Lu Jiu couldn't help but be stunned, and was a little surprised that Orochimaru would be polite to him.

"Orochimaru-sama is polite, please move to the camp."

The baggage convoy brought by Orochimaru slowly drove into the camp, and the people here were in charge of handing it over.

The arrival of these materials gave the front-line ninja troops a lot of confidence, and everyone watched one carriage after another come in, and they spontaneously went to help unload things.

Orochimaru's eyes have been patrolling the inside of the camp, there are many ninjas stationed here, and there are still thousands of troops sent abroad, which is one of the larger garrison camps of Konoha in the battlefield of the land country.

This kind of place is no stranger to him, and he was also a figure in the limelight during the last ninja war.

However, after the outbreak of this war, he was not active on the front line for long and was left behind, and Ape Fei gave him many tasks, but they were not directly related to the front line battlefield.

The guy from Jiraiya is too, obviously fighting on the front line but has never heard much about him, is he also making way for his students.

"Is Watergate here?" Orochimaru asked.

"Watergate has a mission to go out." Lu Jiu said, "If it goes well, it should be back soon, if Orochimaru-sama wants to see the water gate, it will be in time." ”

Orochimaru smiled lightly: "It seems that it is not easy to see him." ”

Lu Jiu explained: "Lord Orochimaru misunderstood, Mizumon has rarely given himself time to rest, his task volume is dozens of times that of others, even if I am on the front line, I basically only have business to talk about with Mizumon." ”

Orochimaru was surprised when he heard this, he always thought that Watergate could have such a high reputation, because he had participated in several important battles and led everyone to victory.

Now it seems that he thought too simply, and did everything himself, which he didn't do at the beginning.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Watergate is really desperate." ”

Lu Jiu said: "Shuimen said that for the sake of Konoha, there is no regret about sacrificing one's life. ”

While the two were talking, Orochimaru suddenly stopped, and he looked up at a large tree beside him, with a huge crown and lush branches, and the sunlight passed through the gaps, forming countless spots of light that shone on Orochimaru's face.

"When I first built the camp, I thought it was a pity that this tree grew so well and it was cut down, so I left it." Shikahisa looked at Orochimaru looking at a tree for no reason, and said.

"Everyone loves to chat under this tree in their spare time."

Orochimaru said lightly: "It's a pity to cut it." ”

A gust of wind blew in the forest, the leaves rattled, and the spots of light on his face swayed, and the light and darkness were intertwined, making people dizzy.

"Lord Watergate is back!"

Suddenly there was a shout in the camp, and the camp was instantly noisy.

Orochimaru saw from a distance that a tall blonde young man was quickly surrounded by everyone, with a warm smile on his face, which made people feel like a spring breeze, and responded to the words of the people around him.

"Orochimaru-sama, Watergate is back." Lu Jiu on the side reminded.

Orochimaru stared at the man, only to make a quiet noise.

"Well, I see it."

The golden glitter on the battlefield that makes the enemy smell and fear, and the village makes the villagers trust and respect the heroes of Konoha.

This young junior, the light has overshadowed his former self.

Fabricated public opinion can fool ordinary people, but what about these ninjas who were born and died with Bo Feng Shuimen, how can they win their hearts?

Orochimaru's thoughts were spinning, but he couldn't find a way to break the game at all.

Before that, he had been dismissive, a Hokage, with his own status and status, a little power and means were not at his fingertips?

He resented Mr. Ape Fei for giving up on himself, obviously he was his favorite student, wasn't he?

Gifted and talented!

But how does it compare to the person in front of you?

The eldest son who is arrogant and conceited, the eldest son who is arrogant and conceited......

The words that he had really said kept echoing in his mind, and they were deafening.

The self-proclaimed smart self is so narrow-minded and short-sighted in this matter.

"Orochimaru-sama?"

"Orochimaru-sama?"

Shikaku's voice pulled Orochimaru back from his thoughts, and he looked sideways at the other party.

"Let's go back to the main tent first, and the water gate will come later." Lu Jiu said.

"Hmm."

Orochimaru glanced in the direction of the water gate again before leaving.

The story is apocryphal, and the reality is even more magical......

What kind of ending can that kid bring to himself!
