"The people of this Thunder Country are really miserable......"

The Land of the Wind and the Land of Earth have both received the news.

As the last battle against the Land of Thunder, the Land of Fire will naturally not be short of news.

In the tavern,

Tsunade, who had just finished a day's work, made an appointment with two old friends and had a drink together.

Now, business in this tavern is much better than before.

The current Konoha Village, after a big victory, washed away the gloom of the past.

Although it is said that in this victory, Konoha did not make any effort.

But for the people and villagers in Konoha Village, being able to live in peace is the biggest gain.

Even most of them changed their stereotypes about the Uchiha, thanking them for ending the war so quickly.

"People should pay for their stupid decisions."

Orochimaru calmly picked up the wine glass in his hand, but there was excitement in those snake-child-like eyes.

"Either way, it's not about our Fire Country."

Jiraiya was indifferent to the information that the country of thunder was jointly defeated, and looked at the five generations sitting next to him expectantly, "Tsunade...... I said, should you give me ten days and a half month of vacation to rest and rest. ”

"It's been more than a year since I returned to the village, and I'm really worried about everything."

"For the sake of me working so hard, it's time for you to give me an annual leave, right?"

Now that Konoha has stabilized, he doesn't care about the affairs of the country, he just wants to leave quickly and go out to collect materials.

He has been in this Konoha for more than a year, and even the update of his masterpiece has been interrupted for more than a year.

How much this affects the reader's mood!

"You're leaving?"

Tsunade glanced at him and replied casually, "Yes." ”

"Really?"

Jiraiya's face was full of surprise.

"Really, if you want to go, you can go."

Tsunade nodded nonchalantly.

In this regard, Orochimaru just drank the wine and did not make a sound.

"Great, then I'm ......"

Jiraiya raised his pitch and raised his glass just to drink.

But before he could say this, his joy had not yet stabilized on his face.

This Tsunade 'snapped' with another sentence and hit him on the head, "You just left with your front foot, and I will never stay in Konoha for another day with my back foot." ”

"Think about it, this mess is so torturous, there are a lot of things to deal with every day, and the old lady even has to take time out to drink, which is no different from going to prison."

"When you leave, I will leave too, and when the time comes, you will have your annual leave, and I will continue to mess with my days."

In an instant, the joy on Jiraiya's face fell, "Tsunade, do you have to torture me?" ”

"You two were the ones who put me in this position in the first place, okay?"

Tsunade didn't show weakness, "I was so comfortable outside with Shizune at that time, I drank whenever I wanted." ”

"You don't have to stay up until midnight to sleep every day, and you don't have to even dream about reviewing documents."

"The most hateful thing is the two of you, one only knows how to hide from doing research every day, and the other sits by the windowsill when he gets to the office, and he will run when he follows."

Orochimaru continued to drink, as if he hadn't heard the mockery in Tsunade's words.

As for his silence, Jiraiya and Tsunade looked at each other for a long time, each sighed, and took another sip of wine in a muffled voice.

"However, this country of thunder has been jointly defeated, and it is not without impact on Konoha."

But after the two of them fell silent, Orochimaru instead opened his mouth and continued to bring the topic back, "Right now, the Land of Thunder still owes us a lot of reparations from the Fire Country. ”

"If they are really destroyed by people from other countries first, then we probably won't get this money back."

"So, I think we should still make a move at the right time to maintain the situation."

When these few words were spoken, Tsunade's face immediately reacted, "Huh...... You don't think the current situation in the ninja world is chaotic enough, right? ”

"Or is there not enough research material for you?"

"Orochimaru, I've told you many times that those tests are inhumane."

She knew very well what the reason for Orochimaru to want Konoha to intervene in this dispute.

was said to have broken his mind, but Orochimaru didn't care, "On the road to success, it is inevitable to make sacrifices." ”

"What's more, those are all villains who wielded butcher knives at us Konoha."

"Physical life is short, since I am conscious and participate in the war, I think I should have lived enough, I just help them get rid of it as soon as possible."

Jiraiya sat between the two of them, and awkwardly picked up the wine glass, "That...... Today's wine is really good. ”

In the past, he said so casually, and one of the two of them went down the steps, pulling away from this kind of topic that might affect the relationship.

But today, Tsunade seems to be unbearable about this matter, and does not intend to go down the steps, "But this kind of cruel thing will not be allowed and accepted!" ”

"Did you know that every once in a while, I now get a whistleblower letter about your research?"

"Orochimaru, you are doing a terrible thing, the pursuit of eternal life through this means is ethereal and dirty."

Orochimaru shook his head, "I said, if you want to get something in return, you should pay something. ”

"Besides, I'm not the only one who is pursuing immortality."

"Do you think that the study of the reincarnation and spiritualization of the Filthy Earth in that forbidden book came out of thin air?"

Speaking of this, he paused, "The body decays with time, but the soul is immortal. ”

"In order to live forever, the ancestors found a way to separate the soul from the body."

"And as long as the spirit finds a suitable and suitable body before falling into the underworld, it can be ......"

Orochimaru tried his best to explain his approach to Tsunade.

As a ninja with profound medical attainments, Tsunade has studied the physical body far beyond him, and absolutely understands what he means.

But......

Tsunade didn't give him a chance to finish.

"The immortality you refer to is piled up with the lives of other people."

"Finding the right body is not an easy task, which means that every time you 'change body,' you have to sacrifice a lot of life to continue what you call eternity."

"And if you have attained immortality on this path, can you really attain immortality?"

"When the time comes, will the person who will walk on this road really be yourself? Orochimaru. ”

She also strongly persuaded, "The human soul may be able to leave with its memories, but the body itself will remain." ”

"In occupying the body again and again, you may be eroded and affected by other people's memories again and again, and when this process continues, the last person who exists in this world will not necessarily be yourself, but a 'monster' fused with the memories of millions of people."

But unfortunately, in response to Tsunade's advice, Orochimaru was thoughtful, "You pointed out a possible flaw to me, Tsunade, thank you very much." ”

Obviously, he has not given up the pursuit of 'eternity' and 'immortality'.
